Mexico City Centro Historico (Part Two) Posted by sasha on Apr 12, 2017 in Videos
There’s lots to see and do in the Centro Historico of the Mexican capital. In Part One, we saw the Catedral Metropolitana, Templo Mayor, and lots more. You’ll need at least one more day here to really take it all in, and it’s a busy one!

Ricardito:
Who is the narrator? Really bad pronunciation on all Spanish words!
kerry baker:
I think you guys should do fewer vocabulary lists (vocabulary lists without context aren’t very useful) and more articles in Spanish.
sasha:
Good idea, Kerry! Funny you should say that because I’m working on doing exactly that! I’m new to Spanish so really I’m focused on showing the places, people, culture and teaching a few words as I learn. However I’m starting work on a series of videos and follow-up written posts that will be all in Spanish. They’ll be at more of an easy-intermediate level, but should be useful! Hopefully will stat rolling them out in May.
