We started early today and left around 10h to the Tulum archaeological site. As we were busy discussing we missed the right exit and had to catch another colectivo back 10km. Luckily the first guy was understanding and did not charge us at all. On the way to the ruins you find gringolandia. Restaurants and … Continue reading Day 120 : Beaching the whole day

We spent the day working and were so absorbed by it that only got out at sunset. We decided then to walk around Tulum and explore the pedestrian streets full of restaurants, street art and stores selling dream catchers and hammocks. As we had stayed the whole day inside we decided to eat out tonight. … Continue reading Day 119 : Walking around Tulum

This morning just before going to Tulum we decided to check the cenote Zaci that is just in the center of town. The whole town was built around it and it is quite beautiful. Contrary to the previous cenote that was an old one with a open ceiling, this is an adult with half open … Continue reading Day 118 : Jumping into a new cenote

Today we are checking another item out of our bucket list:  swimming in a cenote for the first time. In Yucatan there are many underground rivers.

Today we are ticking another box in our bucket list and visiting our 4th wonder of the world : Chichen Itza.

Breakfast in the garden, picking up some mangoes from the garden and another 3h30 bus (130 pesos) to Valladolid. … Continue reading Day 114 : Spending Easter in Mexico

We waited nearby under the shade of cute little plaza San Juan and took the next bus at 12h00 that got us to Uxmal at 14h00. Already famished we could not resist to eat our … Continue reading Day 113 : Finding round pyramids

After a long morning of work we decided to hit the closest local market to buy some exotic fruits. This time we brought home a Mamey, a brown fruit on the outside and red on the inside with a huge oval pit soft life a loquats'. The outside is rough like a kiwi and the … Continue reading Day 112 : Eating Yucatan delicacies
