Chiquilistlan

Breakfast!

The last hidden gem we will be looking at today is Chiquilistlan, Jalisco. This town is actually my inspiration for this blog. Both of my parents were born and grew up here. Chiquilistlan is the place that started my love for hidden gems. I enjoyed coming every year to celebrate the different traditions as well as getting to know more people along the way. Because towns are generally small, like this one, we have sustainable practices that may seem a bit old school. For example, one of my favoraite things to do when I come here is drinking fresh milk, and what I mean by fresh is drinking it straight from the cow! As weird as that may sound it is quite good and so refreshing for breakfast in the morning. Out of all of the towns I've shown, this is the only one that does this. Milking cows every day and delivering to each house is just one of the many ways that the town feeds it people while helping the environment.
