Over the years, I’ve had many MANY desserts in Mexico City but never written about them (until now). This is one of the best foodie cities in the world in my opinion for street food, tacos, fine dining, and specialty coffee. The sweet treats don’t disappoint, either. You can find quality bakeries to rival those […]

Juarez neighborhood is where to come for speakeasy bars in Mexico City. The area is also known for Zona Rosa, the home of LGBT nightlife and karaoke bars. This is a busy, booming part of the capital, especially at weekends. The various speakeasies are hidden in less touristic parts of Juarez. Although there are hundreds […]

The topic of the best tacos in Mexico City is a BIG ONE. From Netflix shows to high-profile YouTubers all sharing their two cents, what could I possibly add to the discussion? Well, I live in Mexico City and I eat tacos a LOT. Of course, I have my favorite spots that I always gravitate […]

I recently had one of my best bucket list experiences while traveling: swimming with whale sharks in La Paz, Baja California! Not only is snorkeling with whale sharks one of the best things to do in La Paz but it’s also one of the best things I’ve done anywhere! Seeing these gentle giants up close […]

My friend and I recently took a trip to Valle de Guadalupe wine region and the easiest way to get there from Mexico City was by flying into Tijuana. My friend had heard through […]

I just got back from a fantastic trip to Baja California Norte, of which visiting Valle de Guadalupe wine region was easily the highlight. On paper (well, website), this isn’t saying much because the other two stops we made were Tijuana and Ensenada and we didn’t think much of either (apart from the incredible fish […]

One of the most charming places I’ve visited lately is Lo de Marcos, a pretty and peaceful town on the Riviera Nayarit. Although it’s near to popular tourist destinations like Sayulita and Puerto Vallarta, it feels like a different world. Gone are the crowds and booming bars. Forgotten are the packed beaches where you can […]

Since I’ve lived in Mexico, I’ve visited Sayulita several times. What was once a sleepy surfing town is now a popular tourist destination – and for good reason. It’s a pleasant pueblo (at least when it’s not too busy) but there aren’t endless things to do in Sayulita town… The real appeal lies in its […]

During my second trip to Sayulita recently, I spent over 2 weeks in town, discovering many of the best Sayulita restaurants, cafes, and coffee shops. Once a chilled, surfers village, Sayulita has boomed in popularity in the last few years. If the construction is anything to go by, tourism won’t be slowing down anytime soon. […]

My friend and I recently took a fantastic day trip from Mexico City to Tepotzotlan, a charming town in the State of Mexico (Estado de Mexico). It really drove home how big it is because it took us nearly two hours to get home and we hadn’t even left the State! Still, it’s a beautiful […]
