    El Meco – How to Feel Like Indiana Jones in the Middle of a Major City

    March 6, 2020 /

    As I walked through the ruins of El Meco, I couldn’t help feeling a little bit like Indiana Jones. It wasn’t like I was being chased by bad guys or that I had discovered a priceless jewel inside a secret cavern. It was more the feeling that I was an archaeologist who had discovered an incredible archaeological site hidden deep in the jungle.

    D.I.Y. Isla Mujeres Tour

    November 8, 2019 /

    It’s easy to arrange your own Isla Mujeres tour, but be warned. If you’re going to rent a vehicle, it probably won’t have windows or doors. Most visitors to the tiny Mexican island travel via golf cart. Even if you do manage to rent a regular vehicle, you won’t be able to drive it very fast – thanks to all the speed bumps on the roads.
