Viva Veracruz! - Tall Travels
http://talltravelling.blogspot.com/2015/08/viva-veracruz.html
Tall Travels: Viva Veracruz! Move to Buenos Aires. Sunday, 2 August 2015. I arrived to the state capital of Veracruz for a two week vacation and handed over a precious bottle of Miahuatlan mezcal without further ado to my friend Arturo. He was putting me up for my first few days in Xalapa so I splashed out on a nice bottle. After dropping of my bags he began taking swigs out of it whilst driving en route to his gig that night. I said snatching the hip flask. "It's not all for you". You want this crema?

Wanting a little taste of home, we decided to put on a spread fit for the ...
