House-sit #8: While we were at house-sit #7 in San Andrés Huayapam, our former hosts (and now friends) from house-sit #4 invited us over for some delicious home-cooked Oaxacan tlayudas and mezcal. It came up in our conversation that we had an unusual two-week gap between the date house-sit #7 ended, and the date we needed to be in Mexico City for our next sit. So, they invited us back to watch their rescue dogs and cats, and took the opportunity for a short trip out of town!
As almost all of our house-sits have been lined up back-to-back, with no time in between, we weren’t really sure what to do with a two-week gap anyways. We were considering hopping quickly over to Chiapas, before heading on a northerly route to our next two house-sits (in Mexico City, then San Miguel de Allende). But honestly, staying an extra week in one of our favorite little villages sounded much more enticing…! We’ve been traveling Mexico for over a year now, and it’s been absolutely incredible. However, we’re both actually homebodies by nature, so we just couldn’t resist five bonus days of dog-piles, kitty-cuddles, and Huayapam village life.
