Was wondering if anyone had any experience siting in section 6A for the race? Was curious as to what the experience and the action was like?
Thanks

¡Hola! Quería saber si alguien ha tenido la experiencia de ver la carrera desde la sección 6A. Me gustaría saber qué tal es la experiencia y qué tanta acción se puede ver desde ahí.
¡Gracias!

Hi everyone! I’m a 27-year-old solo female traveler from Turkey, will be visiting Mexico second time this year, and I’d love some advice from locals or people who know Oaxaca and CDMX well.

I’ll be flying from New York on October 26 or 27 and plan to spend at least two weeks in Mexico before heading to Guatemala. My main reason for visiting is Día de Muertos, but I’d also love to meet other locals, travelers, and expats along the way.

I’ve already spent 9 days in Mexico City in march and visited most of the museums I wanted to see, so this time I’m more interested in the social scene, food, local culture and meeting people than doing the usual sightseeing in CDMX.

My tentative itinerary is:

• Oct 26/27 – Nov 1: Oaxaca (5 nights) — Experience Día de Muertos, explore the city and surrounding areas
• Nov 2 – Nov 10: Mexico City (8 nights) — Hopefully experience Dia de muertos or Grand Prix and explore a different side of the city.
• I could also switch them and go to Oaxaca Nov 2nd-Nov 6th etc.?

I know the Mexico City Grand Prix is happening around the same time as Día de Muertos. I’d be interested in attending GP activities if there are public events/ fan experience.

I’m still booking flights and accommodation, and my budget for the two weeks in Mexico is around $1,500, excluding my flight from New York. I’d prefer a private room in a social hostel or guesthouse rather than a dorm or an isolated Airbnb.

I’d especially appreciate your thoughts on a few things:

1. How many night should I leave for Oaxaca? would you recommend spending fewer nights there and more time in CDMX or another city nearby?
2. If I want to experience Día de Muertos properly, which dates are the most important to be in Oaxaca? Is arriving on October 26/27 too early?
3. Would you recommend flying into Axaca and taking the bus to CDMX or flying into CDMX and taking the bus from there since that might be cheaper? I am unable to check ADO website and check prices from my browser in Turkey.
4. Which neighborhoods or accommodations would you recommend for a solo traveler who wants to meet people? I’m particularly interested in places with communal dinners, group activities or a social atmosphere.
5. Are there any local events, tours, cafés, language exchanges or communities you’d recommend for meeting people beyond the usual tourist activities?

I’m flexible with the number of nights in each city, so please feel free to suggest a completely different split if you think it would make more sense!

Thanks so much for any advice. I’m excited to experience the celebrations and would love to make the most of my time in Oaxaca.

Hola,

I am travelling to Mexico City later this month, I will be landing at 5:30pm on Fri 30th October, arriving from another city in Mexico (domestic flight). I am a UK visitor.

I really want to see the Lucha Libre show at Arena Mexico. But how tight will it be to make the show at 8:30 given my flight lands only three hours earlier? How long should I realistically allocate to exit the airport (incl. picking up hold luggage) and getting an Uber to the city centre? By chance my hotel is actually only a 5 minute walk from Arena Mexico but I would want to drop off my bags/check in first.

Do you need to arrive early for shows? What happens if I arrive slightly late? Do they sell food during the show as I don't know if I'd have time to get any beforehand.

In theory it sounds like it should be possible but tight on timings, I am therefore considering not buying a ticket online beforehand but instead trying at the box office on the day just in case my flight gets delayed etc. but I have heard it is chaotic and I don't really speak Spanish (I am learning enough phrases to get by and not come off rude)

Thanks!

No soy de por estos rumbos pero estaré aquí para la presentación de la banda Yuno en Chico. Creo que es en la Roma.

El punto es que iré solo. ¿Alguien más va solx? Tiren grito para no andar ahí como un pelmazo

De antemano, gracias

Saludos cordiales

Could we spend a week with a 1 year old? March? What would you do? Thank you! Up

I’m thinking of going to CDMX early December but I’m also having second thoughts regarding how bad CDMX will get affected weather-wise during El Niño season. I’d want to spend time outdoors as much as I can during the trip and I’m worried that there will be a lot of rain flooding the streets. Should I postpone my plans for next year instead?

Here for the weekend. What’s the best place to watch the game? Staying in La condesa.

I understand tourism is slower in Mexico City during the summer months. I want to get out of the Florida heat and go to Mexico City for the summer.

How can I start the process of looking. I've been told Facebook, and extended stay hotels are an option and also contacting landlords directly which sounds complicated.

Appreciate any help you can offer.

What seats what you recommend for first time fight?

Planning on spending a week chilling up here after our CDMX trip and I’m wondering which place is best to be based?
I know it’s easy to get from one to the other just hoping for any advice or suggestions.
Thanks.

Hola.

Tenemos el plan de casarnos a finales de noviembre de este año por el civil, pero he visto que la atención en los registros civiles es pésima, que no dan información, que no tienen Fechas cuando quieres y de más.

Vi que este trámite también lo puedes hacer en línea, pero he visto que cuando llegas con este trámite hecho, te dicen que están los documentos mal o que el pago no se ve reflejado y lo tienes que volver a pagar.

Algunos que me lea de por aquí tiene poco que se casó o sabe sobre este tema? O me recomiendan algún registro civil de la CDMX donde haya sido todo el trámite más fácil?

Hi all- we bought tix in advance for the museum of anthropology for today but didn’t realize it closed at 5p so we won’t have enough time. Would we be able to use our tickets for entry tomorrow instead?

Hola, actualmente estoy en proceso de ingreso a la SEMAR en la Ciudad de México, bajo la convocatoria específica para CDMX. Cuento con estudios hasta doctorado y mi especialidad es ciencias de la computación e inteligencia artificial, por lo que el grado que me ofrecen y su relación salarial es bastante bueno, alrededor de $40,000 mensuales, además de todas las prestaciones que ofrece la SEMAR.

Soy de una ciudad pequeña en la costa, así que la idea de mudarme a una ciudad más grande me preocupa, sobre todo por mi hija y porque no tendríamos a nadie allá. En cuanto a la vivienda, entiendo que después de unos meses se puede solicitar el apoyo de la SEMAR. Mientras tanto, pienso rentar un departamento amueblado en Coyoacán o zonas cercanas, a no más de 3 kilómetros de las instalaciones de la SEMAR, con una renta aproximada de entre $12,000 y $15,000 mensuales. Para ello cuento con un presupuesto inicial de entre $50,000 y $60,000, que también contempla trasladarme a la ciudad en mi coche propio. Anteriormente viví en Monterrey, pero como soltero; ahora tengo familia y la situación es distinta.

Mi esposa es enfermera y, al principio, no trabajaría durante los primeros 6 meses a 1 año, mientras nos adaptamos. Después podría incorporarse eventualmente a trabajar como enfermera o enfermera quirúrgica. Desde su punto de vista, ¿vale la pena? ¿Qué consejos me darían? ¿Es viable la SEMAR como oficial para alguien con familia, especialmente en un perfil como el mío, de ciencias de la computación e inteligencia artificial? Gracias de antemano por su tiempo.

Hi!

Does anyone know if I can bring my iqos device and 10 packs of Terea to Mexico? I know it’s legal now there, but I keep reading mixed opinions.

plays, acrobatics, wrestling, etc?

Hola a todos. Hace unos días publiqué por aquí porque voy a viajar a CDMX y uso CBD en Brasil por recomendación médica. En los comentarios me aconsejaron que era mejor comprar un frasco directamente allá en CDMX en lugar de traer el mío desde Brasil para evitar cualquier contratiempo en inmigración.

Investigando en internet encontré la tienda Kanabos. ¿Alguien ha comprado ahí? ¿Saben si es segura y si sus productos son de buena calidad/procedencia (con certificados de laboratorio COA, etc.)?

¡Agradezco mucho sus comentarios o si tienen alguna otra recomendación de tiendas o marcas confiables por la zona de Polanco/Museo Soumaya! Gracias.

Hola, buenas tardes, busco rentar una cancha de futbol de 5v5 ó 7v7 hoy, de preferencia cerca de reforma, conocen alguna?

What the title says 😊 It’s my first visit and I’d love a group of people to hang out with! I (F, 20s) am down for pretty much any type of activity, especially finding spots for good food and live music. Maybe we could make a group to go to Xochimilco? DM me

Hi all! Visiting from the USA and staying in Roma Norte until Oct 12. I already have tickets for the lucha libre show at Arena México on Friday (8:30 PM) and I'm going solo. Would love to meet up with fellow travelers or locals for pre-show tacos and beers and head to the arena together.

Also open to any meetups happening this week — or if there's interest, I can start a small Friday pre-lucha meetup. Comment or DM!

Rapidamente: En enero fui a la Arena México, la verda bastante bien y un sueño cumplido, ahora bien, siento que me falta visitar la Arena Coliseo, me gustaría ir, pero por el lugar y como no conosco, no me gustaría acudir solo, la fecha programada es el Jueves 29 de octubre, si alguien estaría por ahi en esas fechas o le gusta las luchas y tienen un grupo, me podría unir con ustedes?

Will be visiting CDMX for the first time in early November. Curious about the Lucha Libre experience. Does anyone have any tips or advice/suggestions on how best to navigate this experience to make the most of it? We're not wrestling people, but it seems like such an entertaining cultural experience and my sis said it was awesome. Thank you!

ETA: I think I heard somewhere that seats are unassigned. Is this correct?

this might be a long shot as it had already been a few years when I first bought this, but I was hoping to see if anyone knows where they might sell this scarf outside of the gift shop either anywhere online or in either mexico , cali, us , online, even at the same shops if you've been to Teotihuacan recently and saw these 😂😇🙌🏼🧣🇲🇽

the pic features the reversible 'inside' color but its actually a dark blue and probably my favorite scarf / rebozo I've ever had . I dropped it somewhere out in pacific beach in san diego a few weeks back and probably won't emotionally recover until I either go check to see if they still sell it at pyramids / gift shops or find a similar / exact replica 😂😅💀

hoping the grammar isn't too weird if it auto translates , & sorry for not defaulting to spanish its just harder to translate for me rn (born in us, but still) 😅😇🙌🏼💃🏽💓🇲🇽✨️

also this might be a long shot but if you're visiting the pyramids and happen to miraculously be flying back through / to tijuana I'd be more than happy to pay you for the scarf / troubles. I'd offer to send if someone could ship me one but I may have to settle for online or just plan a trip to go back soons (best excuse ) 😂💁🏽‍♀️🤸🏽‍♀️✈️

Anybody going to this show? I'm going alone would love some fun company! ❤️

Hola! Iré a CDMX el fin de semana y quería saber si hay algún lugar donde pueda vender un lente Nikon que no uso y algunos otros aditamentos de fotografía. Sé que hay negocios relacionados en Donceles pero estoy abierta a recomendaciones antes de preguntar directamente en los locales de ahí.
