Traveling in Mexico: Two Special Treats For You in OaxacaThe state of Oaxaca is the insect-eating capitol of Mexico. About 300
species of insects are considered "edible" and more than a dozen are

Traveling in Mexico: Welcome to CuautlaArriving at the glass-walled ADO terminal, I exited the building to the greeting of horns blaring, the stench of choking exhaust fumes, and the shrill bleating of a policeman’s whistle as he tried futilely to evoke order from this chaos of gridlock. It seemed like all 300, 000 residents were headed down this street at the same time. Welcome to Cuautla.

Tossing my bags on one of the two double beds, I sprawled across the other for a moment’s breather. I’d been through Cuautla’s worst already, "From here on it could only get better," I thought. I was right. They did get better – much, much better. Traveling in Mexico: What to Do First When You Get ThereThe exchange rate for changing U.S. dollars to Mexican pesos is fairly stable. However, exchange rates can vary considerably from one money exchange house (Casa de Cambio) to another. The best rates are often at the airport but even there different money exchange houses offer different rates. Check around at the airport before you go to the “Sitio Official” to take a taxi to your hotel. Buy at least enough pesos to tide you over for a couple of days. (taxis, hotel, meals, etc.) Once you’re in the Historic District though, you’ll have to shop for the best available rate on any given day. Don’t buy your pesos at the Casas de Cambio across from the Zocalo, in the Zona Rosa or from your hotel, they always pay the absolute worst rates.
