Travel America

Con las plumas maestras de Gabriela Warkentin y Adrián Roman, en esta serie vemos la eterna mirada de los perritos en esta ciudad en donde a veces nos llenan y los llenamos de amor, pero en otras, también los maltratamos.

Aquí quien busca encuentra, y para hallar auténticas joyas no hacen falta brújula, mucha experiencia ni olfato de sabueso: ya sea ropa, accesorios o alimentos, en los tianguis encuentras algo, vayas buscando o no. Pásale a nuestro especial de tianguis, con la música, el griterío, todo tipo de productos, colores y sabores de fondo en el ambiente. Y una vez dentro, llégales a los cerros de prendas. Zambúllete y explora.

La ciudad es bebedora por excelencia: desde unas chelas hasta exquisitos cócteles, pasando por bebidas tradicionales como el mezcal, y de los dioses como el pulque, en CDMX se bebe 24/7. En este número, revisamos la historia del Tenampa, emblemático salón que nos antoja un tequila bien servido, para salir después a la plaza Garibaldi, territorio de mariachis; recorrer emblemáticas cantinas del Centro Histórico, y descubrir brebajes como el tepache o los tragos clásicos: un old fashioned, un negroni, un daikiri. También, el trago más sabroso: una cuba de ron con coca, a veces pintadita.

En la ciudad fuimos, somos y seremos. Hijes, padres, madres, progenitores, abuelxs. Vivimos todes en un encuentro de tiempos mismo del que son testigos espacios donde baile, comida, juego y amor, se convierten en motores que nos unen, y con los que superamos las diferencias.

In 1842, Charles Dickens visited America. His reception was somewhat colder than that which usually greeted him - already a successful author in both Britain and the United States. This lack of enthusiasm from the Americans was partly due to his criticism of the pirating of English books in that country and partly due to his outspoken distaste for the custom of slavery in the southern states.
