Mexico
In my mind there is no doubt that Mexico is one of the world’s greatest travel destinations. From the crazy parties of Cancun, to the busy streets of Mexico City, with all the natural and ancient wonders in between, there is something here for everyone. The ancient Aztec and Mayan ruins speak for themselves, among countless other places to visit. Mexico has some of the world’s most unique diving spots; desert wells that open up to giant caverns teeming with wildlife. Further more, Mexico has the third highest mountain in the continent as Orizaba falls less than a 1,000 feet short of Africa’s Kilimanjaro. Unfortunately this great country has had its reputation ruined by the drug war which has given the country some of the highest murder rates in the world. Although the cartels are some of the most ruthless people on earth, I don’t believe they have any desire or reason to direct resources to target travelers. So with that said, to me traveling to Mexico is like visiting any other nation in my opinion. Use common sense and you’ll likely have an amazing adventure!
