Leaving Guanajuato
cos no luck finding work
Usually when I am travelling and looking for work something happens and I get lucky, but this wasn`t happening in Guanajuato. I waited until the University opened again so I could check on jobs there, but to my horror that even though the offices were open the students don`t return until the end of January (my uni in England only had 2 weeks holiday for Christmas). And though they would definitely need teachers they wouldn`t be certain of the hours until Mid February. So rather than wait around. I decided it would be better if I continued my travels and looked for work on my way.
San Luis Potosi, It wasn`t a bad town, but it wasn`t very interesting either.
Zacatecas - I spent a couple of days there. It`s OK but not as nice as Guanajuato. The hostel was OK.
- continued onto Aguascalientes but it wasnīt very exciting and I didn`t pick up any work leads.
Lagos de Morenas
a nice enough town, but no work; so I hitch-hiked to Guadalajara. The hitching was great. Iwas really easy the 2nd vehicle stoppped they turned out to be a family who sell "antique paintings" in plazas and supermarket car parks around the state. They were really friendly

Guadalajara although a big city was easy to handle. I didn`t pick up any work leads though.
Eventually I tracked down some people I had met in Guanajato Israel and and stayed at their house. (One Mexican one French guy and one French canadien girl teaching French) They were great I went to the university radio station to help with their radio program "Globosonico"
Jalisco I decided that I would leave and travel towards Irapuato city (cos itīs a large town therefore there might be work) stopping on the way to check out the work opportunities in other cities. I went down to Lake Chapala, but it wasn`t that exciting the lakes drying up so it was way out of sight and it was expensive, so I had to continue my journey.
In Ocotlan I paused and met someone who was starting an new School, but I couldnīt be sure when there would be work. So I travelled on through Zamora and La Piedad eventually getting to Irapuato.
