Heroic Veracruz

From Quintana Roo I took a bus to Veracruz to visit a friend I knew for years but have never met in person so far. I changed the dates a little bit because of what happened in Playa del Carmen. So in the end, he could not come from Xalapa to Veracruz to have a […]

Photo of the week – Dominican Monastery in Santiago Apostol Cuilapan in Oaxaca

Cuilapan means River of Coyotes in náhuatl. This little village in Oaxaca has an amazing monastery from the 16th century.

Me at Tulum beach

With a friend we went to Tulum ruins and the beach for a day. I have to say the beaches of Tulum are one of the most beautiful ones I have ever seen. They are proper places to relax, with very few people, great smooth white sand, some palm trees with shade and blue water. […]

Tirolesa – Zipline in El Chiflon waterfall

More times I have seen some travelers writing about how they did ziplining and I already decided I was going to do it, too. It did look scary a little bit, but every adventure that has anything to do with flying, is just my thing. But the day I visited El Chiflón waterfall in […]

Cancún – love it or hate it. Or be confused like me?

59 lakes of Montebello in Mexico

Chiapas has a lot to offer. It is not very known outside Mexico, but out of 31 Mexican states, it is the state with the most trees, lakes, rivers and green colour is everywhere around you even during the dry season. As it reminds me a little bit of my home country Slovakia, I had […]

Doing exercise at the Cancun beach

During my visit to Cancun, I spent a day at the beach with a Canadian friend I met at the Holbox Island. We were doing some stupid crazy things, but the pictures are amazing because of the white sand and turquoise water.
