... a beautiful patch of white sand and turquoise water. I haven't worn shoes in the three days since I arrived. Walking on the beach and the sand blown street populated only by golf carts doesn't seem to warrant shoes. Snorkeling today at various sites ...

... lives down the road who is a great birder. Life is good and easy and Rob is taking good care of orienting us. This is NOT Belize. It is much more developed and developing. I think this is a good time to come to Costa Rica, I think within years it ...

... relatively untoursity PG for 4 weeks we find being suddenly part of a huge crowd of ‘gringos’ (foreigners) a little bizarre.  In Belize we felt like we had a purpose but we have to come to terms with the fact that in Guatemala we are just ...

... in the Nicaragua-is-a-small-country category, we bumped into the couple we had chatted with a few days ago when we drove out to El Coco Beach from San Juan del Sur. They were paddling a kayak past us and recognized us. They were as surprised as us to ...

... , after a quick swim at the beach at El Paraiso at Tulum, Jus and Suse headed off to continue their journey through Belize and Guatemala. I changed hostels and moved into dorm room further down the road to save some scarce pennies. On 30th Dec I ...

... ! Wooohoooo I came to this island with the intention of doing a fun dive or 2 and continuing my adventures North, to Guatemala, Belize, Mexico and finally the USA where I thought I’d get on a boat and head back to Australia. That’s the beauty ...

... good offer, and saves us the hassle of needing to book the tickets. The only issue is, the route we have chosen doesn't go to Belize. Which is a place we really want to see. So we're doing that on our own, getting a bus down to Belize City from Cancun ...

... on leaving the island at the same time. Then, all going to plan, I should be able to hit the Blue Hole in Belize, visit a part of Guatemala and travel north through Mexico to the USA, hitting LA and Santa Barbara and finally taking a flight back to sunny ...
