Acapulco hobo

If you are a tramp in the UK you need loads of stuff to keep yourself warm. But in Acapulco, keeping warm isn't much of an issue, so you can live with almost nothing, imagine that. This woman hasn't even got shoes, and seems to be wearing just a petticoat and a loose fitting top, no bra.

We saw her a few times. One theme of some of the countries we visited is .. survival. There's no safety net. I don't know if Mexico has. But I'm expecting no unemployment benefit, no health insurance, no social housing. So if you fall, there's nothing to catch you.
