Jean-Adjacent: November Edition

Travels tips and packing lists.

Greetings from Zihuatanejo, Mexico, where I am vacationing with family and friends and having a very, very hard time writing. It’s so colorful and salty and distracting here. Ceviche and tequila. Waves “bigger than Godzilla,” my son says. Who can look away? The fantasy – me, typing furiously under a thatch roof taking sips of coffee and periodically staring out at the sea, ideas just coming and going, coming and going like the breeze? – not happening. My kids are in the pool. I’m going to make this quick.
