Zincalco, Tequila, Veracruz, Mexico -This town is literally at the end of the road. It was a steep down hill drive to arrive at the village. We were guided there by some men who were at the cross roads above. They had just worked out a contract to cut sugar cane for .034 cents per square meter. It is back breaking work buy if the work hard at it they can cut 400 square meters in a day and make 11.20 dls. Just for reference that is 1/2 a football field.

This lady insisted on changing into her Sunday finest and I was fine with that. This top does seem to be from another region and I will have to persist in the village at a further date.
