a very convenient cultural difference

I am everyday surprised about how easy it is to get to know locals here! Having needed two years in Norway before I finally managed to break the ice ;-)
In Mexico, you just meet this guy at the taxi stand in front of school, share the cab cause you live close, and during the ride he asks you what you've seen of Mexico and where you have been out in Monterrey and when you tell him you don't know that many places yet, he invites you to come along with him and his friends on the weekend, you exchange phone numbers - hey people, I wish all the world could be that open!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
