I haven't been outside of the United States for a little more than ten years, but I finally went abroad for a return trip to Mexico. This time, however, I went the furthest south that I've ever been: Oaxaca. Ever since my first Spanish class, I've always wanted to see Dia de Los Muertos, and having five days to see and photograph the event has been one of the best experiences of my life. This photo was made during a parade on October 29.

My favorite trip of 2016 was hands down the five days in Oaxaca, Mexico for Dia de Los Muertos. During my last day, I was able to go to Monte Alban, a historical site.
