Leaving Texas and Crossing Into Mexico
![](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://s7.postimg.org/461bkw02j/File_001_3_1.jpg)
I don't know why but I was soooo nervous about crossing into Mexico.
Even in the moment I knew my feelings were silly.
In Monterrey, Mexico my previous connections through Couchsurfing really pay off.
Through the networking everything changed and the Magical City tour began.

It was like going back in time.
This is actually a hostel with no name.

The Hostel has an unexpected charm.
Much to my surprise,
hitchhiking is turning me into a seriously tough woman.

Every moment I am loving to the fullest but wishing my body felt better so I could enjoy it all even more.
More hitchhiking then I put my well being first.
Having pushed myself harder than I ever remember to keep up with the 20 something year old men I decided to listen to my body and departed from my travel companions.

This is not just a hostel, though.

It's a steemit life for sure! Grateful for your support. Hope you get hooked and keep coming back.
"hooked"

Wow... long adventure.... nice, thank you for sharing ! :)
Life is an adventure. I'm doing this and having a blast. Thanks for the support.
What a trip!
It's so cool that you get to live the type of life that suits your interests/ passions. It really shows through in your writing and in your photos. Keep it up, girl :)
That's great feedback! Sounds like I'm being heard in the way I intend to be.
Just for the record, I don't "get to" do this. It's my choice. Many years of planning have gone into it and no one gave me permission other than myself.
I have constructed a life of freedom of my choosing. Anyone can do it.
I'm happy to see you commenting on my posts again. Grateful for your Follow and support.
You're in the right rhythm and, because of that, you're an inspiration to many who're still searching. That's why it's my honor to support you and your freedom :)
I think I just might be in love with you. WiNk!
:) kisses
What a wonderful journey. I'm happy I discovered and followed.
Welcome to my world. I look forward to your support and much more Following.
