In some parts of Mexico, the Nahuatl language lives on, and even children take Nahuatl lessons and sing Nahuatl songs. The Aztec language is far from dead in Mexico, with more speakers than all of the Native American languages in the US. But was the youngest generation taking the language as seriously as their predecessors? My new best friend and I would continue our journey through la Huasteca to Chililico, a small town where life almost stands still, and where Mexican hospitality was on full display.
