When I was 9 years old I went on a family vacation with my parents to Cancun, Mexico. We stayed in a resort so I wasn't able to get the full effect of the culture but what I did experience, I loved. When I think of Mexico, I think of warm temperatures on the beach, amazing ethnic food and hard workers. I think of the warm weather because if I could have it my way, I would be a complete beach bum so the ocean experience for me was unbelievable. The temperature outside was perfect and the ocean felt like bath water, I was in heaven. Last year I married a man that is half Salvadorian and I have gotten to taste a lot of ethnic foods that his family has made. They are tastes that I am not used to but definitely ones that I'd like to get used to. When I was on my vacation in Mexico, the resort consisted of unlimited food anytime you wanted so I got to try a huge variety from tacos, to enchiladas, to burritos, to things that I have never even heard of but were amazing! The last thing that I mentioned that I think of is hard workers. I think of this because when I was there, every worker that I saw, from a resort waiter, to a landscaper, to a taxi cab driver all took their jobs very seriously and did their best work. Even when I see hispanics here working, they are all very serious about what they do. To me this means that they are hard workers and don't take things for granted. I would say that they appreciate things and life a lot more than someone else who does the bare minimum that they have to at their job just to get their pay check. I had an amazing experience in Mexico and would love to go back one day to learn more, maybe even to where my husband's family is from in El Salvador to learn more about his background.
