Halloween Abroad / Dia de los Muertos

Halloween is one of my favourite holidays back in Canada. Up until this point, I have never missed a Canadian Halloween, this year that would change. I had always assumed Halloween was the same everywhere. Kids Trick-or-Treated until they were around 13 years old and then slowly tapered off to the Halloween parties. I discovered this wasn't true around the world from exchange students my family hosted. From my understanding, in most countries only very young children dress up. I had no idea what to expect in Mexico... especially since their holiday Dia de Los Muertos runs from October 31st to November 2nd.

I woke up Halloween morning; instead of being met with the crisp air piercing my lungs, the rays of the sun beat down onto my skin, and tiny beads of sweat formed on my temples. This feeling will never be synonymous with fall. Every other day if I was asked about cold weather, I would proclaim its dreadfulness without a doubt, but Halloween is different. I wouldn't mind seeing the leaves turn into an array of vibrant

. In Mexico, you wouldn't know it was the time of horror films, haunted houses, and costumes it would be seen as summer. The only part giving away its disguise was that restaurants hung cobwebs and skeletons. One ramen place even had a Halloween sign. Most of the décor might have just been for Day of the Dead... I'm not so sure how to tell if Halloween has been intertwined into Day of the dead. on October 31st We saw toddlers and children dressed up and what appeared to be trick-or-treating at restaurants. The only thing I saw that was most certainly related to Halloween, was a club hosting a Halloween night.

October quickly turned into November, and it was Dia de Los Muertos. It is an ancient holiday that reunites the living and dead, to share a meal with their passed loved ones. Rachel and I didn't know what to expect. From what I've heard in Mexico City there is also a parade. In the small town of Tulum, there were altars set up for loved ones and people in costumes. Rachel tried Pan de Muerto. She said it tasted like a dense lemon loaf coated in sugar, which sounds amazing. From the outside, you wouldn't be able to tell much was going on. I'm sure the locals of Mexico felt the presence of their holiday.
