Clues to look for
Spanish signs, "TOPES" speed bumps, colourful concrete houses, painted shop fronts and dry hills in the north with green jungle in the south.
Driving side
Cars in Mexico drive on the right. So do El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Panama, which are also in Central America. Most of the world drives on the right, so this alone won't narrow it down much: check the signs next.
