Coming To Visit

For those considering a visit. You'll just need to tell us when you want to come and we'll make sure no one else has reserved the room. Don't even think about coming from the US for less than 7 days, it won't be worth it. The flight is almost 18 hours from Arizona but maybe around 12 from the East coast. 7-10 days is a good time frame. Just keep in mind that both Tessa and I will be in class during the week and I probably won't see you at all until Friday rolls around. But no matter, there are millions of things to do in this city and it is so easy to get around. You can take the metro everywhere you want to go.

July & August are supposedly the "hot" months but anyone coming from Arizona or Florida would kill to get weather like this. Yes it is a bit humid here but shorts in the summertime are fine. You'll get sweaty walking around but at least you can go outside without being incinerated. At night I wear jeans and a short sleeve shirt. How many in Arizona can say that? May is supposed to be lovely and the best beach months are May through October. That is also the peak tourist season and there are somewhere around 3 skillion people here. Those wanting to see the Bulls Run in Pamplona should come the first week of July.

But really just plan your trip around when you have time because there are festivities and events going on year round here and there is always something to do. And now its off for la cena (dinner) with some IESE class mates.
