Mazatlan Tours – ATV or Canopy Tour at Huana Coa?

Mazatlan Tours – ATV or Canopy Tour at Huana Coa?

by on December 29, 2011 in Destination, Mexico Travel

I love to zip-line. And when asked, I thought I’d always select a canopy adventure (zip-line) over ATV. Then one afternoon, at Huana Coa, an adventure tour operator, outside of Mazatlan Mexico, I surprised myself. Huana Coa Canopy Adventure Huana Coa, an adventure outfit located in the Sierra Madre mountains is forty-five minutes from the […]

The 2011 Travel Videos Recap

by on December 22, 2011 in Films, Mexico Travel, Travel Contest

Videos. I posted twelve travel videos in 2011, but I helped create only three of them. I’ll do more in 2012. Promise. I plan to make it one of my resolutions for the new year. I largely used videos to help tell the story in a few of my destination series. I gave, you, the reader a […]

Three Surprises at the Market in Oaxaca

by on November 28, 2011 in Destination, Market, Mexico Travel

On each and every new trip to a city, certain adventures always rise to the top of my to-do list. One is a walk and after I strolled the streets of Oaxaca on Sunday, I decided to make sure I performed another “must” the following morning. I headed straight to the main market, Mercado Benito Juarez, […]

Sunset Sunday – Sunset with San Pascual Bailón, the Chef’s Saint, Puerto Vallarta

by on November 27, 2011 in Mexico Travel, Sunset Sunday

The International Gourmet Food Festival just concluded in Puerto Vallarta. Last year I attended the multi (chef) star studded event and tasted specialities not just from the chefs who call Puerto Vallarta home, but from others who visit and take over kitchens and menus at some of the region’s best restaurants. It’s widely discussed and […]

The Alebrijes of San Martin Tilcajete, Oaxaca

The Alebrijes of San Martin Tilcajete, Oaxaca

by on October 31, 2011 in Destination, Events, Mexico Travel

We exited the bus and entered the streets in the midst of a parade, but unlike other parades this celebration was staged. Music, headdress, and confetti created a warm, festive scene. No doubt, local residents considered us their guests of honor. Such fanfare might not exist for everyone who enters San Martin Tilcajete, but after an […]

Sunset Sunday – Zona Dorada, Mazatlán (en Español )

by on October 30, 2011 in Mexico Travel, Sunset Sunday

Llegamos a Diego’s en la Zona Dorada dos horas antes de puesta del sol. Comimos camarones, tomamos las cervezas y placticamos de México. Era una buena tarde. Entonces como el sol casi tocó el horizonte, caminé en la playa abajo al Océano Pacifico. Yo miré el cielo, el océano, y las personas en el mar. Muy […]

The world’s top resorts and resort brands line the beaches of the Riviera Maya. I know I toured many. And I plan to stay at a few on my next trips to the region especially as Stay Luxurious takes off next year. But even so,  I am sure I will always recommend Hacienda Tres Rios […]

Sunset Sunday – Nichupte Lagoon, Cancun, Mexico

Sunset Sunday – Nichupte Lagoon, Cancun, Mexico

by on September 18, 2011 in Guest Post, Mexico Travel, Sunset Sunday

Cancun is famous for its resorts, beaches and fiestas but it doesn’t often conjure images of beautiful sunsets. Arianna, a fan of sunsets herself, told me they are beautiful, but you need to look beyond the beach. I met Arianna through twitter and asked her if she would share what beauty she discovered. She selected […]
