The Killers

Last night we went to see 'The Killers' here in Mexico City. It was a huge venue but an even bigger crowd, the place was packed and everyone of course, was singing along to the most popular songs like Mr. Brightside and Bones. It became apparent that i had a really good view of the stage where ever i stood, Mexicans are quite short you see so i was looking straight over everyone to a clear view of the stage...good times!

On Saturday we went to a club in town called 'Bull', they play mostly rock music which in my eyes makes it way better than anyother club i've been to. The drinks were pretty good too, you get 6 coupons which you can swap for drinks throughout the night, but to our enjoyment Thamara had about 60 of these saved up from previous nights... so basically a free bar - we love you Thamara!!!

They also have 'tribute' bands there every night, on Saturday 14th it's tribute to 'The Beatles'. Hopefully will be going to that and heading off to the airport straight after to catch that 8am flight to Costa Rica, Peru, and finally Buenos Aires.

The food here is good, really good. It's obviously not as good as it is in Argentina for me personally, but it beats anything you can get in the UK or USA for that matter, the cost of living here is low and the currency exchange helps too. Being a butcher back in England, i was like an assistant so the pay was about average for a job you can walk straight into - if you took what i was earning there and put it into Mexican Pesos to spend here, then i´d be earning similar to a professional.

That's it for now anyway, i hope you're all well and life is treating you nicely, 'cause it's going super good for me!

I will write at least one more post before i head off into Argentina.
Thanks for reading!

PS: here are a couple of videos which i filmed when i was out in the states - i forgot to post them.
