I can hear the voice of the Danish singer MØ coming out of the speakers as I’m entering the Uber to meet with Johan. From the first time I heard the voice of MØ on a club in Monterrey, did I have the filing of being home. Not only is MØ big international. Her song “Lean On” with DJ Snake is impossible not to hear here in Mexico so no matter where I go will I hear it.
I’m on my way to the station San Joacuín, where I’m going to meet with Johan. Today is going to be a cultural day, because we want to visit the Museum Jumex after having my first week at ITAM. A week with has been interesting but also a bit confusing since there have been a lot of new information, and I have been speaking and hearing to Spanish all day long, which I really like. A thing I really like about Mexico is the street kitchen. Before we are going to see pictures and sculptures do Johan and I find a street kitchen where we are going to get our lunch. There is five people working in the small kitchen with is only 6 meter long and located on the street. The energy from the people working there is good. They start to make jokes with us and they are telling us that the others at the kitchen, who only are women getting there lunch are getting red in their faces by looking at us. The tacos are really delicious and we are enjoing the time before we continue to the Museum Jumex, where we are founding sculptures of Salvador Dalí.


To get around in Mexico City always takes a long time, but I really like the different wipe you are having from going in the Metro doing the morning, where women are taking on mascara to the street seller, who wants to sell you candy or hear phones or to the man in a suit is just enteoring the Metro when I’m at linie 7 and starts singing opera, wo he can sing louder than the speakers in the metro from where a cover version of “Yesterday” is playing. There is always something to look at or to experience when I’m getting around in the metro system.
Today after the museum visit, are Johan and I going to a pre party, with some Mexicans friends of Johan, so today we are taking the Uber. The roads are big, and we are driving on the top road so we can see over the city, with a soft light from the sun and the impressive view of all the different areas of Mexico city, I’m we on our way to the pre party, from here Mexico City seams endless. Only the mountains in the horizon are making the limit for the huge city.
