    Local Life in Mexico
     
    As a hockey player, my stay in Mexico City for 2 seasons proved to be an exhilarating adventure that extended far beyond the realm of sports. Nestled amidst the bustling streets and vibrant culture, I immersed myself in the rich tapestry of local life. From the moment I stepped foot in this sprawling metropolis, the air seemed electrified with a palpable energy that permeated every corner.
    Exploring the city's historic neighborhoods, such as Coyoacán and Condesa, offered a fascinating glimpse into Mexico's captivating past. Cobblestone streets led me to colorful markets where the aromas of exotic spices mingled with the vibrant melodies of street musicians. The iconic Frida Kahlo Museum in Coyoacán transported me to the artist's world, showcasing her pain and passion through her art and personal artifacts. Meanwhile, the tree-lined boulevards of Condesa unveiled hidden gems, from charming cafes to trendy boutiques, where I indulged in the local fashion and cuisine.
    Mexico City's culinary delights were nothing short of remarkable. I embarked on a gastronomic journey, discovering the diverse flavors that define Mexican cuisine. I savored the explosion of flavors in authentic street tacos, where succulent marinated meats combined with fresh cilantro and tangy salsa, creating a symphony of tastes that danced on my palate. I couldn't resist the allure of traditional mole sauce, with its complex blend of spices, chocolate, and chili peppers, which left me craving for more. And let's not forget the mouthwatering churros, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, dusted with cinnamon sugar and served with a side of thick, velvety chocolate sauce – a true indulgence.
    Evenings were spent reveling in the city's nightlife, where the rhythm of salsa music reverberated through lively clubs. I danced with newfound friends, embracing the passion and liveliness that filled the air. The locals' warm hospitality and unwavering zest for life left an indelible impression on me, fostering connections that transcended language barriers. Conversations flowed effortlessly, laughter echoed through the night, and I realized that the language of joy and celebration transcends borders.
    Beyond the city's vibrant urban landscape, Mexico City also boasted awe-inspiring natural beauty. A visit to the Xochimilco canals offered a serene escape from the hustle and bustle, as I floated down the waterways on brightly colored trajineras, adorned with flowers. Surrounded by lush greenery and accompanied by the sound of mariachi bands, it was a moment of tranquility and reflection amidst the vibrant chaos of the city.
    While hockey may have initially brought me to Mexico City, it was the city's vibrant spirit and colorful tapestry of experiences that left an indelible mark on my soul. From the enchanting historical sites to the tantalizing flavors, from the lively nights to the serene natural wonders, this captivating city opened my eyes to a world beyond the rink. As I bid farewell to this extraordinary place, I carried with me cherished memories and a newfound appreciation for the diverse wonders of Mexico City. It was a journey that reminded me of the power of exploration and the ability of travel to broaden our horizons, both on and off the ice.

    Lets do a recap of the season. Justin Williams had a great rookie season with a amazing 94 points, with him having 5 assists in one of his first games. The playoffs is where he thrived though being one of the leaders in leading Mexico city to the finals finishing second in playoff points. Currently Malmo is interested in drafting me, but Justin Williams for the VHLE wants to be drafted badly by Rome.
