Our Copper Canyon adventure wasn’t at all what we imagined when we planned the road trip from our cozy home office in Canada.

For hundreds of years the villages have pooled profits from their natural resources and now they’ve also turned to ecotourism to boost their economies. After … More Off the Beaten Track, Hiking in Pueblos Mancomunados
Reluctantly and with the goal of making up some time, we left Savannah after just one day of ‘speed sight-seeing’.
