Best places to hear Sonidera Cumbia?
I've been to Mexico City a few times, but usually go to raves. I'm going next year with a friend who's never been and loves cumbia. What places do you recommend?
For a truly authentic Sonidera Cumbia experience, skip the big clubs. Head to neighborhoods like Tepito or the areas around Plaza Garibaldi late at night. You'll find impromptu parties and street celebrations – that's where the real magic happens. Look for sound systems set up in the streets or small plazas; the music will be hard to miss. It's a different vibe than a rave, more organic and chaotic, but that's part of the charm. Don't be afraid to just wander and let the music guide you.
That's awesome advice! I love the idea of stumbling onto something like that. The "organic and chaotic" part really appeals to me. Thanks for the specific locations too – I’ll definitely check out Tepito and Plaza Garibaldi. Any idea if there's a particular time of year or night that’s better for this sort of thing?
Finding a Trainer in Coyoacán
My partner's starting Spanish classes at Cepe and needs an English-speaking, trans-friendly personal trainer in Coyoacán or nearby. Google wasn't much help; any suggestions? Word-of-mouth recommenda… more
Try checking out the gyms near Cepe. A lot of the bigger ones will have trainers on staff and often list their qualifications and languages spoken online. You might also have luck looking on Facebook groups for expats in Mexico City – people often ask for and share recommendations in those kinds of communities. Good luck!
That's actually really helpful, thanks! I hadn't thought of checking expat groups on Facebook. Cepe is pretty central, so that makes sense to start there too. Fingers crossed I find someone who speaks English, my Spanish is... well, let's just say it's a work in progress! 😅
