Well I promised a post a while ago about an upcoming trip Charlie and I were planning.
The reason I took so long to write about it is because it fell through!!! Sort of..
We were planning on traveling down to Oaxaca, Mexico. We have been in touch with a man there who started an English Academy. He was going to let us come to stay there for a week, for free w/ one meal a day, in exchange for 3-4 hours of working with his students. Well we were all gun ho about it until we started to add up the cost and do in depth research.
Our agenda was going to be to cross over to TJ and fly out of there (12 hour flights with connection to Juarez --YIKES! Then take a 4 hour bus ride to the town to Tehuantepec. Which is about a 20 minute drive from Salinas Cruz (Epic surf spot). So that whole journey not including getting around, renting boards, hiring guide, extra mula for food would set us back about 700$. We WOULD be willing to pay it IF we were going for a month or so but it is not the case. So we spoke to our friend Viktor and he told us we can come in a few months if we like. It is a great opportunity thats why i was reluctant to post-pon it but I think it is all for the best.
So now we are just trying to focus on CHarlies damn online math class and our plans for the rest of the year!
Once we figure something out we will post it. I have a few pictures from our stay at Charlie's Grandmother's house so check back soon!
Well that's a bummer, you two were really excited about this one. Well, I hear plane tickets to OKC are pretty cheap. We can go cow tipping or something crazy like that!
