I just know I\u00a0<strong>LOVE<\/strong>\u00a0being here!<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a lot I want to do here, but so much is up in the air that I&#8217;m not sure what path I&#8217;ll take.\u00a0<i>More on those paths later\u2026<\/i><\/p>\n<p>However as always, there will be lots of traveling and lots of eating!<\/p>\n<p><i>It&#8217;s all already started&#8230;<\/i><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve crossed the border by plane, I&#8217;ve crossed the border by walking across, and this time I did it via bus. 30+ hour trip from Atlanta, GA to Monterrey, Mexico.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s just say that from now on it will be by plane. \ud83d\ude02 The only other way is by boat, and I did that years ago on a cruise, so I have ticked all the boxes of travel and will now\u00a0<strong>ONLY<\/strong>\u00a0be doing this by plane.<\/p>\n<p>30+ hours on a bus was grueling. My body still hurts!\u00a0<i>I feel 46 for sure!<\/i>\u00a0\ud83d\ude02<\/p>\n<p>I didn&#8217;t get to try any new foods in Monterrey as I was only there for about a day and a half.<\/p>\n<p>They have two tacos I haven&#8217;t tried&#8230; Tacos de cabrito (<i>Google defines it as &#8220;kid goat&#8221;, but others say it&#8217;s actually the meat from a ram. Looking at the word the cabra (goat) with ito added to the end means little so I&#8217;m going to go with it&#8217;s the meat of a kid goat.<\/i>)<\/p>\n<p>The other taco I wanted to try is tacos de trompo which to me looks similar to tacos al pastor which is my absolute favorite taco. They are also made on a &#8220;trompo&#8221; but with different sauces and seasoning.<\/p>\n<p>Again, I&#8217;ll have to experiment with those next time&#8230; I&#8217;m currently planning a trip to return there and see\u00a0<strong>A LOT<\/strong>\u00a0of things I missed, so I&#8217;ll update you on that later. What I DID see I&#8217;ll be posting on Facebook soon.<\/p>\n<p>I am now at my main destination for now in Huejutla, Hidgaldo. Usually I go to Morelia, Michoacan and I still have my apartment over there, but I&#8217;m trying something new this time.<\/p>\n<p><i>More on that later&#8230;<\/i><\/p>\n<p>Right now, I&#8217;m focused on 2 things&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><strong>1.\u00a0<\/strong>Seeing things here in Hidalgo and in the neighboring states&#8230; Veracruz, San Luis Potosi, Mexico (Y<i>es there&#8217;s a state in Mexico named Mexico. It&#8217;s actually the state where Mexico City is.<\/i>), and probably a few others too.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m staying in a tiny pueblito that the indigenous people fought the Mexican government for. They are (<i>from what I understand<\/i>) self-governed so they can live their lives in their own traditional ways.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll be talking a lot about this because it&#8217;s pretty cool. I&#8217;m still learning so more on all of that later.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2.\u00a0<\/strong>And of course laser focused on business stuff&#8230; It will be business as usual! I&#8217;m going to be taking a bit more time away from the computer to explore and experience this side of Mexico, but I will be working almost daily.<\/p>\n<p>So, you&#8217;re fully up to date&#8230; Another crazy\u00a0<i>&#8220;Liz Tomey adventure&#8221;<\/i>\u00a0has started and I&#8217;m doing this all WHILE running an online business.<\/p>\n<p>The biggest takeaway I want you to get from these kinds of updates is this&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><strong>You can live any kind of life you want when you put in the work to create your own online business.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><i>My online business gives me&#8230;<\/i><\/p>\n<p><strong>1.\u00a0<\/strong>The opportunity to help others with the products and services I create.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2.\u00a0<\/strong>The money to pay all the bills and help others who need it (<i>yes, I&#8217;m big on donations in many forms<\/i>).<\/p>\n<p><strong>3.\u00a0<\/strong>The freedom to see the world when I want and how I want.<\/p>\n<p><i><strong>That to me is an amazing life&#8230;<\/strong><\/i>\u00a0It might be something different for you, but it all starts by getting that online business started to fund the life you truly want.<\/p>\n<p>And that&#8217;s why you and I have crossed paths! So I can share with you how to do it&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Okay, that&#8217;s it for today&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Today I am focused on work.
