Mexico

After 11 wonderful weeks, we Globetrottergirls are finally moving on from Mexico. On the bus on our way to Belize, we were already reminiscing about our time here, and came up with 33 things we love about Mexico…

We were recently nominated by Nicole and Cameron, the Traveling Canucks, a project which was started by Tripbase, with the goal being ‘to unite bloggers (from all sectors) in a joint endeavor to share lessons learned and create a bank of long but not forgotten blog posts that deserve to see the light of day again’. Read on for the seven we chose!

We are three days in to a two month housesit on a remote part of the Mexican Riviera Maya. Over the next few weeks, we’ll be posting in our Notes from the Beach House series to share the highs and lows of one our favorite aspects of long-term travel – Housesitting around the world. Stay tuned!

We are 3 weeks in to a 2-month housesit on a remote part of the Mexican Riviera Maya. In our Notes from the Beach House series we are sharing the highs and lows of this housesit- Stay tuned!

We have never shared a picture of ourselves in our Polaroid of the Week series, but this week we’re sharing our wireless office here in Mexico! Now don’t get jealous…

There is just something we can’t resist about the Caribbean – this Polaroid pretty much sums that right up!

This week’s Polaroid features some colorful calacas in Mexico – decorated skeletons which are used to celebrate the dead and can be found all over the country.

This Yucatan road trip offers a great taste of Mexico: A mix of Caribbean beaches, Maya ruins, cenotes, jungle, delicious food and authentic Mexican villages.

In several posts we’ve waxed lyrical about our love of Mexico – the friendly people, colorful and rich traditions, seductive beaches – but nothing can top our passion for Mexican street food.

Isla Mujeres – this little Caribbean island near Cancun is my little Mexican paradise, complete with picture-perfect palm-fringed sandy beaches and crystal clear turquoise water!
