Come explore the ancient wonders of Xochicalco with Charlie Goff. This UNESCO World Heritage site never fails to amaze.

Xochicalco is one of Mexico's most remarkable archaeological treasures, and it's just a short drive from Cuernavaca. The intricately carved serpents and glyphs on the Temple of the Feathered Serpent tell stories of ancient Mesoamerican cultures coming together in this powerful ceremonial center. Standing before these 1,200-year-old carvings is truly humbling.

What makes visiting with Charlie so special is his deep knowledge of the site's history and cultural significance. He brings the stones to life with fascinating insights about the astronomy, architecture, and the people who built this extraordinary place.

If you have been a student at Cemanahuac, do you remember going to Xochicalco with Charlie?

The Days of the Dead are always an enchanting time to be in Mexico. Come join us at Cemanahuac as we travel to Yecapixta for the largest Day of the Dead market in the state of Morelos. Then we spend a couple of evenings in Ocotepec where we are invited in to people's homes as they remember their relatives. Then we cap it off by decorating the grave of our old friend and artist John Spencer.

​Come to Mexico at the end of October to study Spanish and celebrate the Days of the Dead with Cemanahuac. This is one of the most poignant and culturally-significant times of the year to be in...

We enjoy welcoming back former students. Jacqueline came from Toronto to study Spanish as a college student in 2007. She was back this summer with her children Benjamin and Penelope. They each had classes at their particular level of Spanish and regrouped during the midmorning break. After lunch with their host family, most afternoons they were off visiting interesting places in Cuernavaca. And the kids got to see the same pyramids at Teotihuacan that their mother had visited.
