I was originally going to write this a few days ago and title it "I've been here for almost a week and I still haven't had a taco". But all that changed after I ate two and experienced "La Venganza de Montezuma". After a friend suggested papaya enzymes (you rule, Dion!), I'm feeling immensely better.

It's been an exhausting week. For the most part we've just been trying to get oriented and acclimated. The altitude, the city, the heat, the food, the people, going back to school (!), the exchange rate, the pollution... have all been dizzying in their own way.
