I learned quite a few things over the last three weeks. In no particular order:
- What earth tremors feel like (ans:weird but scary)
- That scorpions can go to sleep in your clothes (plain scary)
- (today, on researching) That while most scorpions, which are arachnids, aren't too poisonous the light coloured ones with thin pincers are. I know what those look like (see above)
- That, at least in the southern part of Mexico nobody talks with a comic book Mexican accent, who knew?
- That Mexico Mayan/Aztecs got seriously screwed over by the Spanish colonialists, as they did not use steel, or the wheel.
