Fabrica La Aurora

Why Museums Can Wait “I used to checklist galleries—now I just wander.” These cities are the art: San Miguel’s artisans: Watch weavers at Fabrica La Aurora or buy a catrina (skeleton figurine) from street vendors. Guanajuato’s street theater: Every plaza has a free performance—just follow the trumpet sounds. 🚗 Getting There (Without the Tours) BlaBlaCar > buses: Split a ride with locals for ~$10 (book 1-2 days ahead). From CDMX: Primera Plus bus to Guanajuato (5hrs, $25), then BlaBlaCar to San Miguel (1.5hrs). Final Thought: If Mexico City is the heart of the country, these towns are its soul—proof that joy lives in cobblestones, churros, and strangers who feel like family. 📸 Shot on 🍫 Guilty pleasure: Chocolate con churros at San Agustín (Guanajuato’s 200-year-old café). #Mexico
