PALENQUE, Chiapas... Is it safe again?

DO NOT let my video scare you from Palenque! Catch Karen's video to see a softer expression:    • Day in my life  in CHIAPAS, MEXICO vl...  

I was recently able to take a day trip to Palenque, Chiapas, as well as Agua Azul and while the destinations were pretty amazing, the journey to and from was less than impressive!

In this video, I'll discuss some of the nuances of living in Chiapas and things to consider when traveling here.

Winding, mountain roads that lead to getting car sick
Various communities that are frequently blockading the roads
and the local populations around Palenque who are looking for things to steal... and maybe worse!

I'll mention two very specific incidents from January 2022 in Oxchuc, Chiapas that opened my eyes to some of the dangers here.
