ISLA MUJERES

Despite all the beautiful things we have seen and experienced, 6 days Tulum would have been too long so we decided to go back to Isla Mujeres for 2 days and not to do anything but laying on the beach.

Poc Na hostel seems to be the hostel to stay at on Isla Mujeres. It is massive, has its own restaurant, a beach with coconut trees and hammocks, a play room and well, shirtless male employees. Gross.

As discussed before, Anne and me went to lay on the beach all day and made up first world problem sentences. Maybe we'll share them, some day.

What else did we do? We ate really well. I would highly recommend "Abuelos" and "Ruben's" if you should ever visit this island. Abuelos has great tacos and they make the most delicious margaritas. Ruben's offers massive and really tasty burritos - to die for, seriously!

TULUM

Tumulululum with amazing beaches and the impressive ruins situated just right next to the beach - an incredible place. Me and Anne met up and stayed at this hostel called Mama's house. Its a cute place with a nice patio and hammocks where people can hang around, being lazy.

We rented bikes and drove to the beach for 2 days in a row. Margaritas happy hour at the beach at 2PM is the way to go. We had such a blast, shared embarrassing stories, talked shit about #selfies and shameless fotoshoots at the beach of other people just to end the day with an #ussie. Oh well,
#winning.

CANCUN

My friend Anne is traveling at the moment as well and we agreed to meet up in Tulum. Before I went to Tulum to meet her, i stopped in Cancun cause I thought I will have 2 days on my own and see what Cancun has to offer. Turns out Cancun was not that great, at least that's how I felt and so after the day of walking around visiting Mercado 28 and Parque de la Palapas just to eat, I decided to go to Isla Mujeres, an island close by, for the day. And it was a great decision: beautiful beach, white sand, turquoise-seethrough water. I sat on the beach and read an entire book and finally the feeling of I-am-on-vacation approached me, quite in a shy way, but I felt it. And it was wonderful.

I do love Mexico's colorful houses.
