So, if you remember, when we travelled to Yucatan we ended meeting Tim and Marisa, in Playa del Carmen, and a few days later we crossed the border to Belize together. Tim and Marisa have eventually become some of our best friends, and we have traveled along and crossed other borders through Central America together, […]

On the morning of Monday, January 8, we woke up earlier than we would have liked, thanks to the blaring trumpets that seemed to be right outside our window. We later found out that the noise was thanks to the local police celebrating their ability to make noise at an ungodly hour without consequences because […]
On Sunday morning, Tim and Marisa met us at our apartment, packed and ready to hit the road. After we loaded our bike, the four of us said good-bye to Playa del Carmen and headed towards the Belizean border. The plan was to visit the Mayan ruins at Chacchoben on our way, stop in Chetumal […]
Our last few days in Playa del Carmen were very low-key, probably because we needed our bodies to thaw from snowshoeing up a snowy mountain. I have decided that Canadian winters are awesome as long as I have a blanket, a hot beverage, and am sitting in front of a fireplace. We rang in the […]
After a couple of days of doing nothing spectacular, we decided to do a day trip to Tulum on Tuesday, December 19. It is under an hour’s ride away from Playa del Carmen and is comprised of three areas: the ruins, the city, and the beach. We started our day with a visit to the ruins […]
We decided to do a day trip to Las Coloradas on Thursday since we still wanted to see some pink lakes despite the Laguna Rosada fail a couple of weeks earlier. So we rode for about 3.5 hours and, lo and behold, we found the pink lakes! It wasn’t as bright of a pink that […]
On December 10, we rode for a little over an hour from Cancún to Playa del Carmen where we rented a apartment for a month at 27,898 MXN (~1,783 CAD). Playa del Carmen is another tourist-infested beach city with not much else aside from beaches, spas, and shopping. As a result, we didn’t do much for […]
As you may know, I got a new music keyboard while in Mexico City – I was missing composing too much – and so I decided to compose music for our videos. Most of the time, I create the music before the video even exists, and then I do adaptations for the soundtrack when Sapna […]
On Sunday, we rode for a little over three hours from Mérida to Cancún where we rented an apartment for a week at 5,900 MXN (~397 CAD). With its palm tree-lined streets, pristine white beaches, and turquoise-blue waters, it is easy to see why so many people visit this beautiful beach city. Last year alone, the […]
