Hello from Tulum, Mexico! We had a BRILLIANT time on the Isla Mujeres, best time ever! We had four days there, hired a golf cart as you already know and we snorkelled on the reef and saw some amazing wildlife. We then swam with dolphins! It was such brilliant fun! After leaving the Isla Mujeres we travelled the two and a half hours to Tulum where we stayed in a cabaña right by the beach which was pretty much camping compared to the hotel we'd just come from wh...

The place itself is nice but the people we met there definitely made the trip there worth while. The hostel we stayed in was brilliant too, with a crazy owner from the UK! One evening...

Hola from Puerto Escondido! After a TEN hour overnight bus from Oaxaca City we finally arrived in Puerto Escondido at lunch time ish yesterday. The bus journey was rough and we hardly slept but we got here in the end and there are plenty more overnight bus rides to come (unfortunately!). Puerto Escondido is surfer´s paradise. The longest beach here is known as the ´Mexican Pipeline´and the water is so rough that is too dangerous to swim in and for expert sur...
