If you would like to read current political commentary about Mexico, a friend here in Mexico has a page http://lifebeyondthewall.blogspot.com
I have been attempting to speak more Spanish with friends from the states and canada, although it is very tiring
have been talking with my host family about poverty and about conditions in Xalapa--they say that Xalapa has so much poverty because prices are high, yet jobs have low pay and there is not much industry
its great for students and for retirees, but rough on the working individual
I will get some facts to share about poverty and stratification in Mexico--the gap between the rich and the poor is very very significant
and the richest man in the world now is Carlos Slim, a Mexican who runs the phones and such here in Mexico
feel free to share any news from the US! I am currently oblivious

Dear Sara, What a wonderful opportunity to practice speaking Spanish. Keep working at it. Thanks for the updates. I love them! You have peaked my interest on US/Mexico relations. I will need to delve into that history. Love, Betty
