“Loved this, and thanks ❤❤❤ for addressing current perceptions of Michoacán. The folks most at risk of danger from organized crime ANYWHERE are always the poor and disempowered, and tourists don’t figure into it. This is as true in New Engla”

“When I visited Morelia and Patzcuaro a few years ago, I was told not to venture to Uruapan. Now that I've watched your video, I'd have to say that another visit to this area needs to be put on my travel calendar. Thanks for a great video!”
