Driving through Mexico.
I would love feedback from Mexicans living in Mexico…
Majority of people in the states believe that the moment you step into Mexico you will be robbed and killed. I know this is not true; but I don’t want to be naive.
I’ve spent time in the Baja. I’ve been learning the language for years.
I am a SWF and I want to drive down the Mexican Gulf to Campeche. Stay for Spanish Classes and continue on to Chiapas area to help volunteer with migrant families. Then hopefully to Sayulita for the winter. 🏄♂️
Honestly;?!? I’m I crazy? 🚙
I would drive only during the day;
Have a few plans, IF anything out of the ordinary occurs. I have a BIG TALL guy friend who might be able to join for the duration of the trip.
Would a caravan be safer?
I am stupid? I hate to believe that anyone who travels to Mexico will be harmed.
I have been planning for months.
Taking classes, researching areas. I’ve seen the news reports. The propaganda here in the states is so thick it’s hard to know what’s truth or not.
I really want someone’s opinion who actually DOES drive through Mexico often and what they think?
Areas to avoid along the way?
Are there companies that can help you with transportation through the country?
Has anyone done this in the last year or two? Any information is appreciated.
Tell me what you would recommend?
I’m ready for your brutal honesty.
