What was your favorite place you visited while there? How did the filming go?
San Lucas Toliman hands down. It was the smallest town we were in (about 30,000 people). This was the view from our hotel:
On that mountain in the mornings, you could hear the birds passing a message along from one end to the other.
At night we'd go to the roof and drink beers. Every night we'd see shooting stars. The minimun was 5 a night, 15 was the max.
Also on that roof, I smoked a joint a bought for 5 Quetzal (64 cents).
We spent most of our time here filming at a reforestation center and the interviews with the organizer were to inspiring. When people ask me how the trip went, I normally respond "indescribable."
That's great B_C, I'm glad you were able to experience this. The photo is beautiful and the idea of laying down on a roof, counting shooting stars and smoking a joint that cost less than a dollar is pretty romantic.
It very much was an experience I'll cherish forever.
