Paella - Cuisine Culture.

Are you bored of eating the same every day? Well, I have a solution (or a suggestion, an idea, a proposal) that you will enjoy, like, love, cherish, relish, etc.). I recommend a dish that is extremely delicious and if you try it, you could not stop eating it and you know what? It is totally healthy. So now I am going to introduce the dish that you need to try. Its name is Paella. Have you heard the name? Paella is made using salmorreta, which is also used in dishes such as “arroz a banda” or” arroz del señorret” and is a sauce made of garlic, tomato, ñora (a hot dried pepper)  and parsley. Then, in addition to the rice, it is made with chicken, rabbit, pepper, garlic, saffron and occasionally chickpeas. It is a cooking recipe based on rice.

So ... Do you want to try paella? you will not regret it!, the best part of eating paella is the completely (inexpensive, reasonable) cost of the ingredients compared to other more expensive dishes. I tried paella one year ago and the funny thing is that I do not like the sea food, but paella is different because you won’t  taste the “sea flavor” like in other sea-food dishes.

You need travel to Mexico City!

 

If you want to meet a city with a lot of places to visit, I recommend Mexico City. Mexico City has several museums very fascinating interactive, like "Papalote museo del niño". You can also learn about history in "Museo de la memoria y tolerancia" or have a good time in "Museo Ripley". To people who love ride attractions, there is  Six flags,  it is very fun and you can buy souvenirs for your friends. To people who like woods you can go to "Bosque de Chapultepec", where there is  a lake, with ducks, there are squirrels running around and there is an absolutely incredible castle. Also there are several restaurants to eat tasty food and if you want listen to mariachi´s music, you can go to Garibaldi. Other things that you have to try are the tacos, cobs, gorditas, pambazos, huaraches, quesadillas and other dishes that are totally delicious.

Deep into earth

I live in Merida, Yucatán and here it's very usual to find “Cenotes' ' They are natural holes of water. In some of them, you can swim ,but others are really dangerous. At first, diving into a “Cenote '' It could look extremely dangerous or it could be scary but if you try, I´m really sure you´re going to enjoy it. In Merida there are around 2,000 cenotes and you cannot miss them to visit at least one of them. When I visited a Cenote for the first time, I was really impressed because it´s A NATURAL WHOLE and I couldn’t believe that it was really safe. After some explanations from my tourist guide. Finally, I decided to swim and I swear that It was absolutely enjoyable. Does anyone know about other activities that I could try? I'm desperate to experiment with new adventures!

How to feel like a kid again?

 I’m not the type of person who likes strong experiences, I always try to escape from them, but sometimes they are necessary to feel alive. One day when I was in the adventure park, I was walking and watching  all the amazing things they offered, all over the place, but I was wondering if I would take the risk to enjoy the big roller coaster. My brother and my cousin wanted to go with coster stuff and they tried to convince me to take the ride with them, and I agreed. While we were in the line I was completely frightened. Once on the ride I experienced anxiety and at the same a joyful feeling of freedom and to be honest, it was the most incredible animation and setting I have ever enjoyed. Now it is  an experience that I definitely  recommend because it helps to release all the toxic energy  and forget all about your problems to take pleasure in the present moment. Riding  on the roller coaster will make you feel like a child again.

AN ADVENTURE

 

 

FORUM  ENTRY

 

 

About 6 years ago I took a trip to the Riviera Maya with three friends, it was a trip only for women.  At that moment I realized that people need various social groups and we can all be enriched with them.

 

We decided to do something like parachute.  My first reaction was to say No, but since I am learning to take risks, I decided to live the experience after my friends spent several minutes trying to convince me and another friend to get on.

 

The staff in charge helped us to put some life jackets on and some harnesses that would adjust  to the parachute and the parachute ride began. I felt excited and with an extraordinary sense of freedom.

 

While "flying", I really enjoyed the ride and did not feel any fear.

When I came down, I realized that my fear was unfounded. I was completely relaxed.

 

I really recommend the adventure, it is a way to overcome unfounded fears and I am sure you will enjoy it.

Lets escape

Something I think everyone should try, at least once in their lives is very simple, draw while listening to music, drawing makes you express your feelings in a very personal and abstract way, the coolest thing is that it is still going to be art because it's original, it's something that is created by your own mind, and is an expression of your own thought to  the rhythm of the song which will guide you through every stroke you make. You don't need to be an expert, just let your hand move freely  in any directions it wants to, you can put colors if you want to. As you finish your masterpiece you will feel totally proud of it, trust me. It will also have a very special meaning to you whenever you look at it, or you can burn it or rip it all apart if you want to, it doesn't really matter.

The main objective of this (activity) is to unburden all that you’ve got inside your mind (for example, feelings of loss, sadness, anger, frustration, stress, happiness, gratefulness, etc.). This for me is one of the best ways to escape that we could take to relieve and free our very own selves. Draw whenever you need to, the times you need, using the color or shapes that you want. Just let yourself get rid of it if it's bad, or express it in the best way if you are feeling great, happy, over the moon or any other feeling.
