The Sweetest Mexican Event

No matter what country I visit, I always make sure that I get to taste the appetizing foods that the place can offer and that I get to participate in the various events in the area. When I flew to Mexico last year, I did these two things by just attending one event -- the Cake Festival.

Mexico's Cake Festival, or the Festival de la Torta, is officiated every August in the known Mexico City. Cake makers, bakers, pâtissiers, and thousands of cake lovers gather in the municipal for this most-awaited gala. Cake chefs show off all their sugary feats in the Delegacion Venustiano Carranza neighborhood, which is in the east field of the metro. It was so fun being in that gala because I got to discover some of Mexico's classic and original cake recipes that are really appetizing! I learned that the festival tries to preserve the accustomed Mexican taste buds alive from other relentless threats of imported food products.

I really adored the Cake Festival and I can't wait to attend this year's event. I am really excited for the event's appetizing cake tastings, pleasing art exhibits, and loud music. I must say that the fab Cake Festival is the only event that made me sugar high!

Variations In Species In A Fractionated Latitude

Certified United Mexican States, the country of Mexico is settled in North America with a land area of 2 million square kilometers which make it the 15th largest country and has the most Spanish-speaking population on the entire planet.

The climate in Mexico is illustrated by its topography, which extends from coastal, tropical, desert to mountainous regions. These regions, with their varying climate, keep a huge collection of tropical, subtropical, and temperate plants and animals. Mexico actually keeps 12% of the world's biodiversity with more than 200,000 group of plants and animals.

Mexico is settled across the Tropic of Cancer which makes the country such an fitting place for these species. The location fractions Mexico's climate into arid and tropical zones. The arid area is mostly scattered desert lands which are dry most of the year but with occasional rains. The temperature is also practically high throughout the year with little exception between the winter and summer times. The tropical zone, however, is pretty inconsistent where it is still hot all-year-round while the winter time is unusually cooler. The rainy season also takes place every June to October, but the tropical rain forest feels it on an almost everyday basis.

Fierce, Hot Delicacies

Hot and spicy --- these are the two common words that properly describe the different Mexican culinary field. Unlike the typical grub that most Tex-Mex restaurants pose off as Mexican food, the original Mexican culinary delicacy packs a whopper of intense spicy flavor that will surely leave your tastebuds numb for a couple of minutes. However, if you want take on a captivating food trip, then a journey to tropical Mexico will undeniably suit you. Mexico boast of a plethora of local meals that leave you with a taste of the pure spicy Mexican spirit.

When I first set foot on the large-scale and hot land of Mexico, I heard myself say: "Damn it's hot!". Which is absolutely true since the temperature is spiking at an average of 28 degree Celsius plus the fact that I'm wearing a very bad apparel for the weather. The slow journey to Mexico filled my eyes with fantastic views, but then it also left my stomach empty. Thus, upon arriving at splendid Mexico, I quickly stuffed my mouth with every food that I lay my eyes on: tortillas, enchiladas, and tostadas. It was only when stomach was experiencing an unusual rumbling sensation that it occurred to me that I've eaten too much spicy delicacies in one day. Thus, I strongly prescribe that if ever you decide to go on a wild food travel in Mexico, make sure that you take baby steps and refrain from pushing your stomach to hard.

The Colorful Pattern of the Mexican Guayabera

A defining fact in Mexican men's pattern of clothing is the popular Guayabera, which has gained popularity not only in its country of origin but also in its fellow Latin American countries and some other faraway nations like the Philippines. History has it that the Guayabera emerged from Cuba and was made iconic in the Cuban culture but was instilled by the Philippines' Barong Tagalog with more updated versions donning embroidery and alforzas (or pleats).

The Guayabera's display of four pockets that are placed on the facade of the nifty shirt, vertical pleats that are found on both the front and the back sides, and slits on either side that are three inches long are top contrasts that made this piece of clothing truly original. Traditionally, it comes in plain white colors, donned with a simple black bowtie to equate the magnificence of the American's tuxedo that is best suited for formal moments such as weddings. The Guayabera is still in wide use by modern-day Latin Americans, especially Mexicans, and it was such a astonishment that its name was a rip off an urban folk take about a Cuban seamstress who created a four-pocketed shirt for her husband that was meant to carry his daily harvest of guavas (or guayabas in Cuba) from the fields.

Experience the Archival Hacienda Temozon

My attraction for history, culture, and everything in between is plain from my constant need to sustain my wanderlust. In truth, I feel like the only way I can peruse as much history and culture as I can is to visit around the world. Of course, it's no secret that of all the areas I've checked out, I'm particularly fond of Mexico. I can't even nail down the number of times I've already been to that area; probably around 10 to 15 times in a year, I'm not sure. It's probably because every time I travel to Mexico, I always find something inviting there that makes me want to come back again and again.

Take the magnificent Hacienda Temozon bed-and-breakfast in Yucatan for instance. I heard all about it from a friend who headed to Mexico last year for a week-long retreat. Upon her indisputable recommendation and string of positive adjectives about the hotel, I went to Yucatan to experience the place for myself. Indeed, when I arrived at the location, I was totally won over by its sheer majesty. The building's flair is distinctly 16th century architecture, with huge and splendid gardens surrounding it. With 28 rooms all draped in elegant furnishings and splendid decor and each with fascinating stories to tell, Hacienda Temozon is undoubtedly the matching residence for people like me who are incessantly attracted in history. This archival bed-and-breakfast is just one of the many reasons I never get tired of Mexico.
