We have a lot of proyects, the most important being pig farming and watering/gardening, the pork we are growing is an endemic and endagered race called "Cerdo pelón mexicano" (mexican bald pig) they are regional and eat only corn, grains and grass/leaves.

  There is always a lot to do and mantain, but what i really like about being here is that i also get to enjoy a lot of the sightseeing, when the chores are done or while taking a small break you can enjoy of all the fauna around the places we have built like the pond and cactus area, there is a lot of water caves called cenotes around, hence the town name; cenotillo, pyramids and nice spots to catch the sunset are just a few km away, sometimes even at 10 minute walks, and most of those roads are full of trees, life and green, theres a lot of towns around worth visiting and most of them just a bus ride away, i also have a house in Mérida, and tours around there can be arranged with anticipation on the spare time we get, we have a vast list of beautiful places to visit, a treat for the sight that you will never regret.
