About Us - This is Mexicanist

Right, listen up. If you've stumbled upon Mexicanist, congratulations - you've just hit the jackpot of all things Mexican. And no, I don't mean sombreros and tequila, though we're rather fond of both.

Welcome to the most ambitious Mexican newsletter project... in the world. We're not just scratching the surface here; we're digging deep into the very soul of Mexico with the tenacity of a determined chihuahua after a particularly juicy bone.

Now, you might be thinking, "Oh great, another website about tacos and mariachi." Well, you'd be wrong. Dead wrong. We're here to blow your mind with the complexity, the contradictions, and the sheer brilliance of Mexican news, culture, travel and food. From the ancient Aztecs to the modern-day mavericks, we've got it all covered.

And when I say "we," I mean a crack team of newsy commandos, each more passionate and slightly unhinged about Mexico than the last. We've got historians who can recite Mayan calendars in their sleep, foodies who'd risk life and limb for the perfect mole recipe, and art aficionados who'd sell their grandmother for a glimpse of a lost Frida Kahlo sketch.

Whether you're a seasoned Mexico hand or a complete novice who thinks Cinco de Mayo is a type of mayonnaise, Mexicanist is about to take you through the labyrinth of Mexican current affairs. It'll be loud, it'll be colorful, and it might occasionally be as confusing as navigating Mexico City's street food scene after a few too many mezcals.

But one thing's for certain - it'll never, ever be boring. Welcome to Mexicanist and let's get started!
