my room, hammock and mosquitero at jose maria morelos
This first week at laguna kanab was very very very hot and educational. We are five students in one room. As you can imagine, hammocks everywhere! The diagnostico is a really cool process, we met the town delegate, the local doctor, principle of the elementary school and high school (colegio de bachierra) and talked to them. Another part is a census, going house to house, asking about economic activity, migration, religion, customs, access to sevices and government assistance programs. We have interviewed elders to learn about the history of the pueblo. Pretty much the only job is milpa, growing corn, beans, squash, jicama, chile habanero or as one milpero told us, ¨everything but mota!¨ Yes, i hope you all are well out there in the wide world.... here are some glimpses of mayaland, mayab, southeastern quintana roo mexico
