CHETUMAL
NOVEMBER 1974

Dear Doris,
Finally I decided to move on and I hitched a ride south. Since then I&#8217;ve been staying in an abandoned house with no roof on the outskirts of Chetumal. This is a real spooky old pirate town on a bay on the Caribbean coast near the border to British Honduras, the gateway to [...]]]></description>

TULUM
OCTOBER 1974

After I left San Cristobal I passed a few hours in a very small village in one of the little valleys in the hills and there was a big fiesta going on there that took over the whole town with a marimba band and costumed dancers with bizarre colorful animal masks, the whole country [...]]]></description>

SAN CRISTOBAL
OCTOBER 1974

 
Dear Doris,
I got the itch again, so I left Oaxaca and hitched a ride south about halfway to the Isthmus of Tehuantepec where all the women were exceptionally tall and wore long colorful gowns like gypsy princesses. It was very late when I got there. I was still several miles from the [...]]]></description>

OAXACA
SEPTEMBER 1974

Dear Doris,
Finally had my fill of idleness and solitude.  I packed up my little bag and hitchhiked a ride about 50 km south to Pochutla where the road goes inland to the capital, Oaxaca. I couldn&#8217;t get a ride out that day, so I spent the night right there by the side of the [...]]]></description>
