I think it's going to be tough to tell what the favorite thing I've done so far is. To avoid being trite, I certainly won't claim that just living in a foreign country; eating exotic foods; and meeting fascinating people is my favorite thing, because it's not.
Mexico is great, but my mail gets lost, ferrets disappear, and the pace of life is a little too tranquilo for me; I do love some exotic foods, but my stomach hasn't really been right since I've been here; and you really have to sift through a pile of snobs, wastecases, derelicts, and drifters (usually my people, but not here) to find truly interesting people here.
My favorite story to tell is about eating cow eyes which usually gets a good reaction from both locals and foreigners alike.
While the Zapatista Conference was really amazing and I love going into local communities, I have to admit, I did really get a kick out of lucha libre and climbing in the ring.
