When I first transitioned to a travel writer, Mazatlan, the seaside city on the Pacific coast invited me to experience the Mexican travel destination. Since my first visit in 2009, I’ve returned eight times and now have numerous memories of the sun, surf, seafood, cliff diving, amazing sunsets on the malecon and sunsets in the […]

Campeche, a Peaceful Sea of Green
by stayadventurous on March 6, 2015 in Destination, Guest Post, Mexico Travel
When I think about Campeche, two images come to my mind. The first one is a warm night at the Capital city’s main square with locals playing lottery around the kiosk like in an old and small town. Soft lights on, children playing around, a sense of peace and harmony. The second one is the amazing […]
An Angel Inside the Museum of the Dead in Aquascalientes, Mexico
by stayadventurous on March 5, 2015 in Destination, Guest Post, Mexico Travel
Aguascalientes is not on the short list for lots of travelers as places to visit in Mexico. These days it’s more of a transport hub and industrial base than a tourist city. There’s one major reason to visit though: the Museum of the Dead (Museo de los Muertos). No, it’s not about narco battles or […]

Just before you arrive to Celestun, Yucatan there is a turn off for the Ria Celestun, a protected nature reserve. Inside the park visitors can rent a boat (includes the boat captain) for 1,200 pesos.

Let’s Go for a Ride in Baja California Sur
by Craig Zabransky on March 2, 2015 in Destination, Mexico Travel, Photo
When I arrived to Pescadero, BCS (Baja California Sur) I discovered the essence of Baja California. I found my Baja. Walking up to the lobby at Ranchero Pescadero I took this image. I wanted to go for a drive across Mexico and take a long endless desert road and also take to the Pacific Ocean […]
Barcelona to Valencia, Three Stops on a Spanish East Coast Road Trip
by Craig Zabransky on February 26, 2015 in Destination
Driving Spain is a great way to explore the country. The open road offers a freedom from schedule and the chance to visit lesser-known Spain. After time exploring the beauty of Barcelona, a city I definitely would recommend you not drive as a visitor (not sure I’d recommend driving any city actually), you can rent […]
Exploring the Mayan Ruins of Riviera Maya with a Car is Easy and Safe
by Craig Zabransky on February 23, 2015 in Destination, Mexico Travel
A trip to the Riviera Maya is not complete without a visit to Mayan Ruins. There are plenty to choose from, but for first timers, a visit to one of the “Big Three” Chichen Itza, Tulum or Coba is a great way to start your exploration. Although tours can take you to each of these […]
