Tota Lake (Laguna de Tota) Boyaca, Colombia
Tota Lake (or Laguna de Tota) is the biggest lake in Colombia. The size of the lake and the surrounding Andes mountains make it a magical place to visit. But it wasn’t only the esthetics of the place that made it so memorable; it was the kindness of the people here...
Sogamoso, Boyaca (Colombia)
The month that I spent in Sogamoso was one of my favorite travel experiences that I’ve had. The city is perfectly positioned for hiking and numerous day trips to visit cute little towns inhabited by kind folks. Although the quantity and quality of things to do around...
Paipa & Duitama (Boyaca, Colombia)
Paipa is a popular vacation town that is mostly frequented by residents of Bogota, Colombia’s massive capital city. A lot of these people come to stay at the natural hot springs resorts or to enjoy some water sports on Sochagota Lake. Although there’s a lot of fun to...

Campeche, Campeche
Campeche was the first place I was planning to spend a few months in, trying a new slower paced, more immersive style of travel. What I had read of the Campeche made me imagine a fairly quaint, well preserved town. When I arrived I can't say I had the best first...
Ciudad del Carmen, Campeche
Although they both have beaches, Ciudad del Carmen (Campeche) is NOT Playa del Carmen (Quintana Roo). Tourists do not come here. Find out why in the video below https://youtu.be/9RFZaDJjkkA Ciudad del Carmen isn't a beach bums dream vacation but it is a...
San Andrés Tuxtla, Veracruz
The area surrounding San Andrés Tuxtla is known for its natural attractions such as Catemaco Lake, home to monkeys, and the impressive Eyipantla Falls. But the city of San Andres Tuxtla is worth visiting in of itself as, during normal times, it regularly hosts open...
