In late October my host family began to buy marigolds, candles and sugar skulls. “The Day of the Dead is coming,” said my host sister, Lucía, with a smile. I felt uneasy.

Marigold petals were laid in a line from the door to the altar, because people believe that their scent and colour help the spirits find their way home. / On the second night, the whole street became a party.
