Before my residency in the state of Jalisco west of Mexico I visit my family who live in Cuernavaca close to Mexico city. They live in an area that was once on the lush green outskirts of the city but now is built up and populated by wealthy Mexican families` holiday homes. It is land that my mother`s Swedish uncle Frederik (who sadly no longer lives) bought with his wife Josephine, a Mexican born in Minnesota. Frederik was butler and personal assistant to the Wenner-Gren family during the 40s and 50s. They were a very wealthy family whose money came from Axel Wenner-Gren who owned the Electrolux Corporation. I stay with Frida Alin, Jospehine's granddaughter.
