78 Days of Freedom

It's crazy to think that I'm on a 2 1/2 month adventure traveling through Colombia, Peru, Chile, and Argentina. It feels like it was yesterday when my boyfriend and I made the decision to stop making excuses and to start making plans toward our dream to travel. So here we are, three weeks into our travels and it's been an incredible journey meeting new people from around the world, (re)learning Spanish, and exploring different countries and cities in South America.

Grand Velas Riviera Maya

After a night in Tulum, we drove up to Riviera Maya where we stayed at the Grand Velas, one of the luxury all-inclusive resorts in the Mexican Caribbean. They have several locations so if you ever have the chance to do so, I definitely recommend the stay!

32 Hours in Tulum

Back at it, again...with Mexico! Tulum has been on my travel wishlist for a while now, so I was thrilled that we made a stop before heading to Riviera Maya. Even though we only stayed for one night, I fell in love with Tulum and its young, bohemian, yogi vibe and energy throughout town.

Tulum, MX: Hartwood

Hands-down one of the best meals I've ever had in Mexico and a must-stop in Tulum. Hartwood is famous in Tulum and beyond - and for a great reason. From the amazing food and its gorgeous atmosphere, it's just one of those spots where you immediately want to go back to dine again the next day. The chef-co-owner Eric Werner is from Brooklyn who formerly cooked at Peasant in New York City before making the move to Tulum... & we're all so glad he did!
