I went "dumpster diving" through old files last week. Cleaning out hard drive space to make room for new images. This is one of the gems I found hidden away.

Taken in 2019 on a trip to #Guatemala with my sibling. We were hiking up to a Volcano near #AntiguaGuatemala and we're constantly being engulfed in clouds. In fact, this forest is nicknamed cloud forest for that very reason.

Exploring Merida, Yucatan, Mexico, I walk a lot even though it is very hot and the humidity is exhausting.

Especially the old streets are pure eye-candy when it comes to architecture and details. Nowadays I only take photos with my phone, I sold the Nikon. Sometimes I miss my DSLR.

Organized crime, cartels, armed groups... are the reasons why people are being threatened & fleeing Mexico & Central America: Excellent article about how payment to criminal groups has woven its way into everyday life, in every purchase from avocados to lumber to cigarettes. #OrganizedCrime #Cartels #Immigration #MexicanCorruption #Mexico #CentralAmerica https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2024/05/23/mexico-cartels-tortilla-exortion-crime/
