Lucía: I was thinking we could visit Oaxaca this year. Daniel: I'd love that, though we should plan ahead. Lucía: How about going during the Day of the Dead? Daniel: Perfect, I've always wanted to experience that tradition there. Lucía: We could design an itinerary with culture and nature. Daniel: Yes, as long as it's not too exhausting, okay? Lucía: All right. Would you prefer to stay downtown? Daniel: Yes, as long as it’s near the local markets. Lucía: Would you like us to rent a car there? Daniel: Only if visiting nearby towns is essential. Lucía: What if we hire a guide for Monte Albán? Daniel: Good idea, that way we won’t miss any details. Lucía: Even if it rains, there are indoor cultural activities. Daniel: Then I’ll pack appropriate clothes just in case. Lucía: I’ll handle accommodation and you take care of transport. Daniel: Deal. Oaxaca is going to surprise us a lot!
