Celestun Biosphere 

Our trip to Mexico, to my surprise, had occasionally ventured into the land of action movies settings. Or at least that’s how it seemed to me. We had Indiana Jones kind of film setting at Coba ruins, if Indi ever went on an adventure discovering a historical Mayan abandoned village by going through ...

Chichen Itza Dark Tourism 

One thing I'm really really good at is finding something totally unrelated and not even near to important when I have something else more pressing to do. It’s not procrastination, it’s more like focus deviation. Like when I'm supposed to wrap up our Mexico trip posts, I suddenly have th...

Lunch at Hacienda San Pedro Ochil

As I've mentioned before, this blog supposedly serves as our digital journal for the trips we did. Emphasis on the words OUR and WE. Which means, the stories in this blog should be about us, things that we did, we experienced, and how we felt about it.  I’ve been writing most of th...

Day trip 1 from Valladolid - Ek Balam, Las Coloradas, Rio Lagartos

It was supposed to be a short hiatus from documenting memories before my short memories syndrome erases them out of my mind. But here i’m again, writing again since *mumble mumble* later after the trip has been done. I would love to say that the hiatus happened because I’ve left the list of the happ...

Izamal, the Faded Glory of Mexico's Yellowest Town

Okay guys and girls, hear this: I am not the only one who is crazy with color themes. If you happen to know me IRL, which I hope you don’t because this will be awkward, you’d know what color I like without even asking me because the color will be effortlessly shown on almost all of the stuff I own. ...

Valladolid

Looking back at when life was a simpler time (read: about three months ago), I realized I’ve been making false promises to myself all my life on how I would do things differently if I have been given enough time. Like, I would finish my craft projects, write all our travels, and fold the laundry. Yo...

Isla Holbox Island Vibe

We just celebrated our anniversary and this relationship is the longest relation we both ever have in our lives! How long have we been together? Uh, that’s the thing, we don’t have the same understanding of when the relationship actually started.

Isla Holbox

Four weeks into this Covid-19 confinement, or is it six weeks? I am not sure anymore. In fact I am not sure about anything anymore apart from the fact that the world is on hold for an unforeseeable date, stepping outside your home needs a thorough risk assessment, and Carole Baskin killed her husban...

Biking in Coba Ruins

Coba ruins are claimed to be one of the ‘unbeaten path’ gems to discover and has one of the last ruins in Mexico you can climb to the top. It is located about 50Km from Tulum into the inland of Yucatan. 

Despite our tight schedule, we managed to visit the ruins on our way to Chiquila before catc...
