Mexico
Atmospheric music, beach, sun, sea, cacti and tequila. These are the first things that come to mind when you hear the word Mexico. This is no coincidence, because these terms are absolutely typical of Mexico. But not only these. Mexico is a country where hospitality is not only written in capital letters, but also has a long-standing, well-established tradition. There are only a few rules that you should definitely follow when traveling to Mexico, but these should not be ignored under any circumstances. Mexico not only enchants its visitors with its beautiful beaches, but also offers so much else to see. In addition to architecture, culture and history, you can also get to know the country and its people in a very special way in Mexico.
