Mexico city : one of the most polluted city of the planet and combined to the high altitude (above 2200m) those factors had the following side effects on me :
- Nose (slightly) bleeding (that never happens to me)
- Headache in the evening (ditto)
- Bronchial irritation (e.g. I cough)
- Shortness of breath
The main cause of the last symptom is due to stairs + carrying beer.

| The damn stairs |
After 4 days, the breathing and headache problems are almost solved.
I hadn't any stomach related problems, thanks to the advices given by Lorely :
- don't drink tap water (drink beer !)
- vegetable must be carefully washed using a special disinfectant
- don't eat or drink anything sold in the street.
I think that an heavy rain helps : today for the first time in 4 days I could see the mountains surrounding the city, and I
almost didn't cough.
