On January 3, a group from Converse College, South Carolina, U.S.A., arrived to Mexico City. After a stay of two days in the city, and visits to Teotihuacan and the Museum of Anthropology they continued their trip to Morelia where they will study Spanish. At the end of their course they will come back to visit Historical Downtown and Coyoacan. We hope they enjoy their stay in Mexico!
