Costa Careyes Magic

Here are a collection of photos from my recent trip down South to Careyes and to Hotelito Desconocido.  By way of my beautiful and talented friend Anne Menke (fashion photographer) I have been fortunate enough to participate on on many of her local (Mexico) shoots.  I am normally doing props and set design, but this time I was assisting the stylist and it was quite a fun diversion as I love getting mee hands on some fashion.   Careyes Style is one of a kind and the natural beauty that surrounds is truly amazing!

This is the little place I have called home for the past 6 years.  Come visit!

Buying trip - San Cristobal de Las Casas

I haven't blogged in quite a while - mostly due to the fact that I have been really busy working.  I recently went on a successful shopping extravaganza in San Cristobal de las Casas, Chiapas.  The first time I traveled there, we stayed in a really nice B&B right off of Santo Domigo Church - right by the main market. This trip, we stayed in the relatively new and hip hotel, Hotel Bo - Bo meaning "water" in the local language Tzotzil.  I did get a little sick on both trips, but needless to say I definitely am making this my "go to" for finding amazing wool  and embroidered textiles and other treasures.  Chiapas is an interesting place because much like Guatemala, there is a very rich Mayan culture.  Most indigenous people still speak there native language and there are many people who don't even speak very much Spanish at all.
