Hi everybody,
My name is Mariana Vasquez and I am from Oaxaca, Mexico. I am new on campus and I will be here just for this term. However this is such a great experience and I am sure it will be unforgettable.
I would like to share some information about my country with you. Oaxaca is the fifth largest state in Mexico and it is located in the southwest. It is rich in history, nature, and culture. Oaxaca was also the settlement of two very important indigenous cultures: the Mixteca and Zapoteca. Today, we have still preserved 16 indigenous languages throughout the region.
I will try to provide some web sites links so that you will know what is going on in Mexico. If you want to know something about Mexican culture or Oaxaca, or just practice your Spanish, just e-mail me, I will be glad to help you.
This is a site where you can find lately news about Oaxaca, just as an introduction.
