SAN IGNACIO I.II.VII.I – DAY ONE 27/09/22 Having to peel myself away from Roy and getting out of the most comfortable bed in existence proved to be one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. Luckily enough, we had a full day of activities and adventures ahead of us. After having breakfast and bidding Kay and Darcy adieu, Roy and […]
I.I.XI.I – Chetumal: Day One & Two
CHETUMAL I.I.XI.I – DAY ONE & TWO 07/09/22 & 08/09/22 One last comfortable bus ride later and there I was, in my final destination in Mexico, the city bordering Belize – Chetumal. I gotta admit, I wasn’t quite ready for it. Getting to Chetumal meant I’d be leaving Mexico, and whilst usually that would mean it’d go back home and […]
I.I.X.II – Tulum: Day Two
TULUM I.I.X.II – DAY TWO 06/09/22 The next day, I found myself on yet another unplanned tour suggested by a local who worked at a restaurant I dined in. A beaten down minivan picked me up in front of the travel agency, along with three other Dutch guys who’d be joining the tour. After being dropped off in the middle […]
I.I.X.I – Tulum: Day One
TULUM I.I.X.I – DAY ONE 05/09/22 A couple of hours on a bus (no more limos) took me to yet another destination – Tulum. Once again, I knew my time here would prove too short to actually do everything, and so I had to prioritise. I stayed in the residential area and forewent the resort zone, which, in all honesty, […]
I.I.IX.I – Playa del Carmen: Day One to Three
PLAYA DEL CARMEN I.I.IX.I – DAY ONE TO THREE 02/09/22 – 04/09/22 Turns out, hooking up with a millionaire comes with perks – including a limo ride to my next stop. After getting rid of the stench of greed and money-hunger that oozes from Cancún, I finally moved on to Playa del Carmen; a somewhat toned-down version of the former […]
I.I.VIII.III – Cancún: Day Four To Six
CANCÚN I.I.VIII.III – DAY FOUR TO SIX 30/08/22 – 01/09/22 I spent the rest of days in Cancún doing the touristy, ‘must-do’ things. Whilst my original intention was to try and go off the beaten track, I figured things wouldn’t be as touristy if they weren’t cool. Much can be said about that but so far my philosophy seemed to work, […]
I.I.VIII.II – Cancún: Day Three
CANCÚN I.I.VIII.II – DAY THREE 29/08/22 As much as I seemed to dislike the city, it did have some remarkable qualities to it – mainly its vicinity to the old Mayan ruins; a stark contrast between the overly modernized city and the remains of a once powerful civilization. And now, I’d be embarking on yet an archaeological day-tour. First off […]
I.I.VIII.I – Cancún: Day One & Two
CANCÚN I.I.VIII.I – DAY ONE & TWO 27/08/22 & 28/08/22 My next bus ride took me to the most touristic city of Mexico, that of Cancún. Being a relatively new city which was built in 1970 mostly for touristic purposes, Cancún is found in the state of Quintana Roo and makes up part of the Caribbean coast. It took me […]
