Xochimilco Canals — Party Down the Floating Gardens of Mexico City
Intro This was the one thing in Mexico City that I was truly excited for, the Xochimilco Canals. A boat party and I don’t mean the kind of boat party you might go on in Malia ala the Inbetweeners. No drinking fish bowls and throwing up overboard, before snogging a questionable stranger. No, I mean a Mexican Fiesta onboard a trajinera! Xochimilco is a world heritage site. The waterways are left over from what used to be a vast lake used for transportation during the pre-Hispanic period. It is a charming scene of intense greenery and the wetlands are a habitat for migratory birds.

My Adventure in Central America
Man, these sure have been a tough couple of years! Out of the many, many inconveniences and restrictions brought on by the Covid-19 pandemic, I’d have to say that the worst part for me was having been deprived of perhaps my one true passion – travel. Oh man, how I love to travel. Be it - sailing through the vast oceans of the world, or watching as the clouds drift by at 40,000 feet as you go halfway across the world; hiking up a mountain until you can barely breathe, pushing your way through the thick, untouched vegetation of the jungle, or lying on a tropical beach somewhere with a cocktail in hand – it is everything. It’s what makes me feel alive!

The Reality of Costa Rica Yoga Retreat
Yoga Retreat: Expectations vs. Reality -Costa Rica You may imagine waking every day to the sunrise and experiencing morning yoga and spending hours breathing in bliss until you reach nirvana. Or you may be on the complete opposite side of this where you feel as though you have never properly done yoga – there was just that one time at the gym – but you picture yourself in a picture-perfect posture, even though you don’t know the name and fantasize about being on the cover of some magazine.
