The aftermath of a hurricane. One can find trash all over Cancun in poor and un-inhabitable areas. Cancun is a worldly known paradise from its crystal clear Caribbean waters, lush nature and its luxury hotels. A world renowned tourist resort, Canc is a coastal city in Mexico's easternmost state, Quintana Roo, on the Yucat嫕 Peninsula. Founded no more than 30 years, the city homes over 500,000 people who came here from different parts of Mexico and world, with the dream of a better life. This is a closer look or more personal view of Cancun showing its people and tourism, the differences and sameness, mixing and homogenization of two entirely different cultures such as American and Mexican.
