This is a piece I wrote a few years back for the Independent. It talks about my experience of a reenactment of the crucifixion of Jesus in Oaxaca. Something I will never forget. These reenactments will be taking place in a number of places around the country today.

As I wandered the streets of Malinalco with an old friend I have known since I was just eleven, we discussed my obsession with doors and trees. Both hold some sense of history and, therefore, mystery for me. The bigger and older the tree the more I imagine it has lived and seen, standing strong through generations as humans come and go. The same can be said for doors. What do they see, what do they hear, what secrets do they hold? . . . . . . . . . . #mexico #visitmexico #doors #ihavethisthingwithdoors #puertas #puertas_mex #malinalco #pueblemagico #estadodemexico #mexico_magico #mexico_maravilloso #writer #travelwriter #freelance #stories #behindcloseddoors
