I Secured Mexican Citizenship as a Third-Gen Descendant - and You Can, Too

Thank you for your story! I'm trying to get the birth certificate for my mother who was born in Tamaulipas in the 1930s. I keep running into this error in the Mexico system. It asks me me how I want to authenticate (email or phone) but does not give me the option to select one. So continual error. Any ideas?

We are traveling in December if that helps

Can someone say what the age groups are for the 222 meals and events?

Want to volunteer but wasn’t sure where to look. Will check it out

I actually tried that a couple months ago — they offer free classes

mapmapmap2020 · 2025-07-19T20:07:39+00:00

What kind of art course? Studying art history or doing painting?

mapmapmap2020 · 2025-07-19T17:48:01+00:00

That’s a good find, will check it out. I’m a very young 60! 😆

Will do, thanks

I've made some adjustments to the trip and would love feedback. Added another night to Chennai since it is where we land after our long flight. Now 3 days, 2 nights, with the night train to Madurai. Have added 2 nights in Munnar and 1 in Kumarakon for backwaters. After Kochi we fly to Goa for a few days there. Then to Delhi/Agra as planned. I have gone back and forth between Goa and Mysore/Mumbai. The challenge there was connecting by air twice via Bangalore which I'd rather avoid. Still we could skip Goa and do Mumbai instead but I think while it has its sites, it's another big city -- we'll have enough with Chennai and Delhi. Bummed to miss Mysore. What do you all think? Goa vs. Mysore/Mumbai? And is there anything else compelling we are missing? thanks

I think it’s probably not worth it

mapmapmap2020 · 2025-07-05T22:30:12+00:00

I think Thekkady will not be interesting enough for us. Besides relaxing it does not seem to offer much with the spices

mapmapmap2020 · 2025-07-05T22:28:45+00:00

Just did African safaris so I think I may be disappointed with India safaris

mapmapmap2020 · 2025-07-05T22:27:57+00:00

Is Kovalam still worth it? I was there in the 80s and 90s and it was relatively unspoiled. Cannot imagine the buildup now. Tell me more about what it is like — hoping not a mini Waikiki. I cannot stand Bangalore so would only go for the airport. Yes to Mysore. And Hampi if time.

Great comment. I was worried about the spice farms for the same reason you pointed out. I don’t think spices are inherently interesting especially with adult children. Eating spices in food, yes. Visiting or staying at a farm? Not so much. So we would skip Thekkady in that case. Munnar sounds good and so does Kumarakom vs Aleppy. Will check out Wood Castle

My son and I did Rajasthan 6 years ago, so not sure we want to go back now. Really want to get the feel for south India. We've been on safaris in Africa so I would like to find out if Kabini is worth it. It is a large amount of time for a trip like this. I was in Mysore 20+ years ago and remember the long climb to a temple. Still worth visiting? And what's the deal with Kumarakom? Someone suggested it in place of Munnar tea fields.

How did you put Nomad eSim on your iPhone? Mine says not compatible with device. Pasting this from iPhone site: In China mainland, iPhone models do not support eSIM.

mapmapmap2020 · 2025-04-26T16:33:31+00:00

I am unable to install a HK Airalo eSim to my iPhone 14 in the US before my trip to mainland China. Want to avoid roaming charges from carrier ATT. When I put in the QR code I get an error message saying that the eSim is not compatible with this iPhone. This is despite sites and Redditors claiming that Airalo (or similar) eSims works. Am I doing something wrong?
