In their own words: “Right now, I'm in Jalatlaco, which is a neighborhood that's, I guess, only a 15-minute walk from the old center, and yet it feels like a little world of its own. Right now, it's Day of the Dead so it's super extra decorated, but even in normal times, it is like an open-air art gallery. It's amazing. There's so much street art, so many murals here. And this area feels like a local neighborhood that kind of became a thing. So there are many little cafes and cute little shops here.”
