Eating WORMS in Oaxaca?!?! (this was not on my Bingo card for Mexico)
My Mexican group trip continues! After Mexico City, we stopped by Puebla to watch a Lucha Libre wrestling match before continuing onto Oaxaca City. We watched the sunset over the city, explored the markets, visited a local Tapista and bought handmade crafts, went swimming in Hierve El Agua and had an almighty Mezcal tasting session at El Rey de Matitlan. What a wild few days!

Our first stop in Morocco is Taghazout, a laid-back backpacker surf town about 1 hour north of Agadir.

    I really want to visit Iquitos because I hear there is a hidden Jewish community that dates back to the 19th century. Morrocan jews sailed the Amazon and set up homes in Manaus as well as Iquitos. Google maps doesn't point out the shul in a warehouse
