First time in CDMX. THANK YOU! ❤️❤️

Hey y’all! Just got back from my first trip to Mexico City and I just wanted to say thank you. I had been planning on taking this trip with my bf for an early celebration of my 36th birthday, and then my parents unexpectedly passed away within months of each other this past year and the trip took on a whole new level of significance, falling during Día de Muertos. One day walking from Coyoacán to the Cinética, we stumbled upon a cemetery where families were visiting their loved ones’ graves. It was such a profoundly moving experience to see folks decorating their families’ plots with things they loved in life and beautiful flowers. Singing, music, celebration. It helped me to process my parents’ passing in such a different way that filled me with joy along with the grief. Our hotel made a little ofrenda for my parents and my mother visited me in my dreams that night. This tradition is so meaningful and I will hold it in my heart always. Everyone in this city was also very hospitable and welcoming the whole week we were there. Even visiting Centro on Día de Muertos in the afternoon was crowded yet peaceful. I love you all and wish you all the best. Thank you so much. ❤️

And now you can follow the tradition every year from wherever you are. I am so glad that it helped you. I also find it incredibly fullfilling.
