Taxco, or Taxco de Alarcón to give its full name, is an antique colonial silver-mining center located in northern Guerrero. Made a national monument in 1928, Taxco has been a tourist destination since, with trademark white houses with terracotta roofs.

The nicest traveller hangout in Taxco - Cafe Sasha. Owned by Chicagoan expat Sasha and her partner, it's a great place for a bite to eat, finding other travellers or a drink.

Currently it looks like my trip to Mexico could be interesting. Not only is Mr Lopez Obrador messing with his country's election, he's messing with my travel plans.
