Portrait - chica in Zihuatanejo mercado, Zihuatanejo, Mexico
c Kathleen Crislip
I came across this lovely senorita in the main Zihuatanejo mercado after a day of wandering its shady aisles and was struck by her absolutely friendliness. She grinned at me until I moved on and left me with a smile in my own heart.
Zihuatanejo is a terrific town minutes down the Pacific coast from touristy Ixtapa. Go for the sunny beach and stay for the people.
