Almost all of the beautiful old ruins have been bought up and ruined, in a certain sense, since I bought a ruin in Merida one August 20 years ago. Merida has changed in so many ways for the better. But Gringos suburbanizing 18th and 19th century ruins is not one of them. My favorite thing to do is take photos of this changing city. In the past I would like to walk around with a big Canon changing the lens and taking time to frame and focus. These days it´s a more likely a quick shot with the iPhone while driving down the street. Here I´ll post a few quickies street shots from my Best of Yucatan Instagram account.
The People in Merida are incredibly friendly and usually don´t mind if you take their photo if you ask. Sunday is the best day to take photos of the buildings in town if you don´t want to battle traffic.
I spent a year locked down in Merida. Not blogging. Not taking many photos but what I did take you can find on my Best of Yucatan or my Urbano Rentals instagram.
