Chic By Accident
@drewshroyer
owned by a very cool daddy french guy, high end gorgeous one of a kind pieces, reads more like a museum and only steps from Parque Rio De Janeiro. you have to buzz up, no street markings, but worth a quick 15 minute perusal.

Xochimilco
@drewshroyer
two ways to experience this - in a morning yoga, learning, mindfulness kind of way (i recomend) OR party on a boat all day... honestly we did this for my best friend's bachelorette party and it was a fucking good time so. pick your poison. You can book on airbnb or beep my buddy on whatsapp - tell them Drew sent you, he'll give u a discount. +52 55 4175 1615
