So we jump in a shuttle bus at 6am and wave "Adios" to Antigua and head for our next boarder crossing into El Salvador! We meet an awesome Australian couple on the bus that put our travel journey to shame, they have been travelling for 20 months and trekked the world! I am pleased to be reassured that getting "used" to hostels and horrible showers takes time but in the end you love it... We will see! This was another interesting boarder crossing, the teachers w...

We left off our last blog at Lake Atitlan in Guatemala, and well that's exactly where we stayed! We headed over to San Marcos La Laguna with the intention of signing up for Spanish lessons, medition courses and yoga but it didn't go to plan!! San Marcos was an amazing little village, very quiet and very suited to those wishing to learn more about themselves. However the day we were headed there I found out my Mum had been admitted to hospital in Perth and was in...

We have arrived in Guatemala, but best I take a step back and update what has happened in the last week.

In our last post we had arrived in Tulum, Mexico where we ended up staying for 3 nights and both of us fell in love with the place. I must admit, to start with I was a little frustrated that there seemed to be nothing going on, until I realised that was the attraction, there quite honestly was n...

So after less than 24 hours in LA, we are back on a plane and heading for Cancun, Mexico. Just for reference sake this flight was just under 5 hours, and the passengers (mainly Americans) were not the smartest people I have ever met - the flight attendant nearly had to knock one of them out for standing as the plane was taking off - it was actually kind of scary!! We land in Cancun and catch a "collectiveo" from the airport to our accommodation - Hostel Quetzal...
