After few days in Oaxaca City we came
about 60 kms south of the city heading coast...But we stopped in the heart of
the mountains...And stopped for 2 weeks! Cause we did a volunteer work there.
We spent 2 weeks living in Indian town/village helping our host Anisha to
create small, ecological farm there, in the mountains. In weekdays we work
about 4 hrs daily digging in the garden, repearing fences, etc, in exchange of
tasty and healthy, but very simple food and accommadation. Our village was
situated about 2 500 metres below sea level, so at night it was quite
cold, even about zero degrees, we had to put the fire in the fireplace...But
during day it was at least 20-25 degrees...We enjoyed our time there, meeting a
lot if local, indigenous people, talking with them, eating with them, etc...After
this we headed to the seaside...before we go there we had to hitchhiked about 4
or 5 hours in truck o the pick up in the veeery curvy, mountainous road...But
the landscapes were spectacular. We spent about 5 days on the seaside, sleeping
in tent on the beach, maybe 20metres from the sea, for small money (bout 2 euro
per night per person), eating fresh coconuts and fighting with huuuge waves.
Excellent time!
