Despite my efforts trying to stay on the Isla, we ended up taking the ferry and heading to Cancun. That did not make me happy at all, but I got over it in about 32 hours :). We found a hotel in Cancun’s Hotel Zone, about 20 min drive from the airport. We had a […]

TULUM, THE CITY OF DAWN
One of my dreams, while in Mexico, was to visit the Mayan ruins in Tulum which was about 1,5 hr drive from Cancun. Tulum flourished between the 13th and the 15th centuries, fading only 70 years after the Spanish army arrived and started conquering Mexico. Tulum ruins are perched on 12 meter high cliffs facing the […]
MEATLESS MONDAY TIP FOR CANCUN: LE NATURA RESTAURANTE
We did not experience abundance of great food during our trip to Mexico, but this one restaurant is worth the mention: Le Natura. It is in Cancun Hotel Zone where we stayed after leaving Isla Mujeres behind, just about 15 min walk from our hotel Fiesta Americana Villas Cancun (hotel review coming soon). Le Natura […]
NA BALAM HOTEL, ISLA MUJERES (MX)
The way we ended up going to Mexico was totally random. I was looking for hair straighteners on Groupon(found a good one!) and somehow got curious on Groupon Travel so started browsing around. Once the word yoga was mentioned on one of the resorts in Mexico I was immediately interested. I convinced my husband that […]
ISLA MUJERES, MEXICO
We split our vacation between Isla Mujeres and Cancun. Needless to say Isla Mujeres won my heart… Cancun, not so much. Isla Mujeres has the most gorgeous, tranquil beaches and is located just eight miles from mainland Cancun. There’s a ferry that will take you across the bay. We took a private cab from Cancun […]
From Mexico with Love: Sneak Peek
We spent a wonderful vacation in Mexico this past week and loved the beautiful beaches and friendly people. It was very hot and humid, but living right off the ocean made it alright. We hang out a lot in the shallow, crystal clear waters to beat the heat. Also took some yoga classes at the […]
INSTAGRAM TRAVEL THURSDAY : MONTREAL
I’ve never really cared about the holidays and we usually don’t do anything extravagant like attend big parties and such. But last year, instead of just sitting at home again on a New Year’s eve, we decided to pack our bags and take a long drive to the closest foreign country. Canada that is. We […]
GHOST AT LA MAISON PIERRE DU CALVET
The first night, when we finally arrived to Montreal, things didn’t go exactly the way we had planned. Once we picked up the keys to our apartment and walked in, we noticed that it had not been cleaned. So we had to find a place to stay for the night. Remind you that this was […]
