Los Arcos Guadalajara

Guadalajara, Jalisco

The first weekend in Guadalajara my collegue and I decided to explore the center of the city with it's rich variety of architectural styles, ranging from the baroque to the modern. The city's colonial architecture is a product of French and Spanish trends that were current in Europe at that time.

Basilica of Zapopan

Zapopan, Jalisco

"I haven't been to Zapopan, if I haven't been to the Basilica...", that's what locals told to me, since I worked in this part of the Guadalajara metropolitan area. The basilica is one of the most visited sanctuaries in Western Mexico and it preserves a wooden Virgin which came from Spain in the 16th century.

Men at work

In this section you can find a few funny shots I took at work. It's just fantastic to see how people in other countries in related jobs do some great stuff under difficult circumstances, like these guys were supporting us at the installation of our machinery in a temporary "open-air" workshop!
