Lorinda Tisdell, who relocated from the US to Ajijic in Mexico, enjoys taking photos of the brightly painted and tiled buildings there and in the surrounding villages and towns. She matches up her pictures with inspirational quotes on her Instagram page. Once again, we asked her to create a selection for Mosaic & Glass readers and here they are. Enjoy!
