A Stroll With Obstacles (Matehuala, Mexico)

Narrow spaces! Let me tell you about narrow spaces: you got to pay attention or you turn the next corner in the street and run into the next lamp post or other weird obstacle - like in a cartoon.


And high borders between the sidewalk and the road: if you hit that with your car (even an SUV), it’s not just meaning a flat tire, the whole front gets crushed. Climbing that down and up, every time you cross the street: it’s a full workout ;). In the US people actually did ask us repeatedly how we keep in shape...


We usually walk everywhere, unless we go for a special target or - for whatever reason - get too tired or lost; especially if we get distracted and just follow the music, but usually we are at least pretty good at retracing our steps.
