Thank you Edward, you helped me a lot with the electrical installation of my house, I would have liked you to spend more time with us.
Edward is one of those volunteers you wish would stay for a long time :) He is a guy with an arsenal of knowledge, down to earth and a big heart.

Temescalapa is situated north of Mexico City in a cactus forest surrounded by mountains. With several years of living in similar regions in New Mexico and Arizona, it was easy to adapt to the Temascalapa region. Prior to arrival the host, Rafael, had communicated very clearly via email and WhatsApp. He provides clear instructions on using the… read more public transportation system and other available options. I opted to use a Didi for my ride from the airport to Temascalapa. the 1 hour ride was $467 MXN Pesos, or approximately $25 USD, plus another $160 MXN Pesos for the roll road fees. I was very happy to pay the fees considering the express way eliminated about 30-45 minutes from the drive. Upon arrival Rafael met me at the drive way.

I am very happy to have made this one of my volunteer experiences. Rafael is a very humble man and is very respectful of others. He is patient and sees the value in everybody. Rafael and I spent many moments at the Ferretería (hardware) stores finding the proper supplies for each job. We worked primarily on electricity to various rooms in the house. This included light switches, outlets and assorted power necessities. The house is incredible! It has approximately 7 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, some of which are nearly finished and some that require paint or lighting. The ceramic tile work in the house is amazing, and it is throughout the entire house. Rafael's dad began this project several years ago using a DONKEY and a CART to transport water and supplies for the cement. This is a 2-story house (mansion) and it displays the love and compassion put into every moment.

There is no best part because all of it was beyond completely satisfactory. However, Rafael's mom and dad would visit for a couple days from time-to-time. When they were at the hostel his mom prepared and provided 3 meals a day, fresh, authentic, and the most delicious meals I have had in the several months I have been traveling. She (Isabela) made sopa (soup), pollo (chicken), carne de res (beef), AND made vegetarian food for those requesting specialty diets. I cannot express enough the gratitude for Isabela and Amilillo (dad).

Then there was Luna (Maria Jesus Luna), and absolute amazing woman. She goes by "Luna" because during her University studies in Medicine there were many "Maria's", so her professors called her "Luna" and it has been her name for a long time. Luna is absolutely incredible. She is a very beautiful human with a heart as big as the universe. She is a neighbor of Rafael's and absolutely loves and supports the volunteers. She works very hard everyday in the town and ALWAYS found time to come across town to Rafael's to visit with the volunteers. Luna would walk to the market with us and interpret for those who had limited Spanish (me) and arranged a special 'Temazcal' (Sweat Lodge) where we met the local Shaman (local meaning more than 60 kilometers away). The 'temazcal' was hosted at Dayan's (the name for medicine woman in Latin America) who, with her husband, built a compressed earth block house FULLY SUSTAINABLE. This is MUST SEE experience. Luna didn't ask for anything in return, although we made sure she had money for her family and always included her in the meals - ALL of them. She was always so grateful. She is made of PURE LOVE and it is very evident.

The local inhabitants were always helpful and very patient with us (foreigners) and would engage in conversation. We were treated like royalty, something that is very rare these days, by Rafael's family and the local inhabitants. The authenticity and genuine perspective of this culture is a very refreshing and healing environment on many levels. Remember this is in a desert environment with cacti and desert dwellers such as rodents and snakes (although I never observed any).

If you are seeking a compassionate environment away from the city, LED's, thumping stereos and experience a chill work load (there is boat loads of work, so always something to do), I highly recommend this as an option.

Maria Luna has a personal web page -ask them for the link - to support her "Travel Guide" abilities. I strongly suggest reaching out to her if you are fortunate enough to be selected for this work away. As a previous Work Exchange host for 4+ years, this opportunity will be one to remember for a very long time. In the up coming weeks You can read more about our experience and view additional photographs -ask them for the link
