Mødet med Mexico gjorde et stort og varigt indtryk på den danske globetrotter og forfatter Lis Andersen. I denne bog fortæller hun om sine personlige oplevelser på rejsen, og hun berører også de problemer, der findes i landet. Lis Andersens rejseskildring er som altid præget af stor nysgerrighed og glæde over al den skønhed, der findes i naturen såvel som i kulturlivet. Lis Andersen (1918-2001) var forfatter, globetrotter, fysioterapeut og naturterapeut. Som barn rejste hun rundt i verden med sin familie på sejlskibet Monsunen, og det lagde grunden for et langt livs rejselyst.

Il Messico è il paese dei contrasti estremi. E all'estremo di tutto, c'è Mahahual: dove finisce la penisola dello Yucatán, sorge questo paesino di mille abitanti, a pochi chilometri dalla frontiera con il Belize. Angolo di paradiso tra palme e mangrovie, di fronte ha la barriera corallina seconda al mondo per estensione, il Mar dei Caraibi e lo scorrere lento del tempo: siamo nello stato del Quintana Roo, che a nord vanta la celebre Cancún, mentre qui c'è l'opposto assoluto, non solo geografico, perché a Mahahual il cemento non ha ancora invaso la vista.

Tu dici California e pensi al Golden Gate di San Francisco, alle spiagge sabbiose di Malibu, agli studi cinematografici di Hollywood. E invece, appena più giù, c'è un'altra California, che a metà Ottocento seppe resistere all'avanzata delle truppe statunitensi e conservare la propria integrità e indipendenza. È la Baja California, la California messicana: la più lunga penisola del mondo, quasi duemila chilometri conficcati nel cuore dell'Oceano Pacifico. Pino Cacucci è ritornato nel "suo" Messico per attraversarla e per raccontarla, da sud a nord, da La Paz alla frontiera di Tijuana.
