Chichen Itza recently named one of the new seven wonders of the world attracts people from across the globe. Visitors come by the bus loads to walk the grounds, view the sites, and ponder the past where both Maya and Toltec civilizations once flourished. However, on both the Spring (March 20/21) and Autumn (September 21/22) […]

The Breathtaking Beauty of Cenote Multun-ha
My guide walked toward the cenote, but I couldn’t see any cavern entrance or surface water. Confused my paced slowed even with the sudden rainfall and darker skies. She started to descend. Stairs? A spiral staircase descended below the surface and I followed her into the earth. After 20-30 steps and still no sight of […]
The Cenote Swim at Hacienda Tres Rios
I took off my life-preserver device and decided to dive. A deep breath and I left the surface to swim towards the bottom. Not very deep, only a few meters down, I touched, turned and planned to return to the surface. I looked up. Magical. Sunbeams penetrated the clear crisp water and shined on my […]
The Fountain of Banamex, Santa Fe, Mexico City
Fountains. I am a fan. I always find myself taking a break to relax, unwind, and enjoy the cityscape around fountains. Big, small, historic, or just simply communal – fountains inspire and energize. When in Mexico City, I worked as a consultant for Banamex. And when I think of my favorite spots in Mexico City […]

Within driving distance (once outside the city traffic) you can find yourself sunning on the beaches of Acapulco, exploring the mountains and forests of Michocan, or walking the colonial […]
Seamless, Sustainable Green Travel at Hacienda Tres Rios

The private path to the main hotel entrance might be considered a touch more “natural” than others, but when you arrive at the main reception area, no doubt exists. You booked a luxury resort. At first […]
Postcard – The Man from Malpica, Mexico
On a special “MexMonday,” (it’s Mexico bicentennial celebration week) I wanted to post a photo that’s special to me. Not solely because of the substance, but also because it enabled me to meet a great community of people who promote Mexico. People I now call my friends. On an excursion to visit some of the […]
A Mexican Pipeline Birthday
I take my birthday off every year. That did not change this year and was no different during the days when I called Mexico City my home. That year, I decided my September surf session would not be at the Jersey Shore or Fire Island, but in Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca. “Puerto,” as it is charmingly […]
