Day 1 - 20 May 2021
Cancun International Airport
Content: This time I traveled to Mexico on a different mode. Solo travel mode. I took my laptop with me because I still had to work and join zoom meetings for some classes. I did not rent a car but instead took the ADO bus which was really comfortable and had AC. Ticket to Playa del Carmen was ~ 11$ usd
Location: Playa del Carmen
Day 1 - 20 May 2021
Selina Playa del Carmen
Content: Cheap for the location and proximity to the beach and ADO bus but it wasn’t my favorite and I stayed at a few different selinas. I just spent one night and finished some assignments before going to Tulum the next day.

Location: Tulum
Day 2 - 21 May 2021
Mayan Monkey Hostel Tulum
Content: Arrived on time to connect to my zoom meeting. This hostel is like boutique hostel or the most “luxury” hostel there is out there. I had the coworking all to myself from 8-10 pm. From 6-8 pm I connected from my room and the wifi connection didn’t fail even once. I was amazed and so relieved. Hands down the best hostel in Tulum.
Location: Tulum
Day 3 - 22 May 2021
Laguna de Kaan Luum
Content: We walked from the hostel to Tulum centro to take a van that took us to Laguna Kaan Luum. Make sure to get the drivers phone number to call them when you are ready to be picked up.
Laguna de Kaan Luum
Content: Don’t forget to take pictures with all the swings and go to the look put point to get a better picture from the swing in front of it ;)
El Camello Jr
Content: I was craving shrimp and we walked around tulum centro where we were dropped off to find shrimp! Good enough for the price, nothing fancy but worth a visit if you are around.
Café Antoinette Tulum
Content: Excellent place for dessert, if you love sweets and are staying at Mayan monkey then definitely stop by here. After spending a great time in Tulum I went back to PDC with the ADO bus 🚌

Playa del Carmen
Content: My luggage broke and walked around the south part of PDC to find a new luggage and found this this colorful street.
Parque Los Fundadores
Content: Be careful when planning your Quintana Roo trip. Mexico gets hit with lots of seaweed and may is definitely a seaweed month. Tulum was even worst. This part of play del Carmen by parque fundadores was not bad at all with seaweed, was the cleanest part of the beach.
Barrio Latino Hotel
Content: Loved the location and the privacy of this hotel. Family owned and friendly. Located a few steps away from the Peruvian restaurant so it could not be more perfect 😍 I love Mexican food but I’ve been eating it for a while already so it was good to have Peruvian food so accesible and at a affordable price.
Location: Ciudad de México

Mexico City International Airport
Content: Lost my flight to Oaxaca (from cdmx) be careful with your gate I don’t see letter gates in the airport only numbers so make sure to ask someone from your airline where are the letter gates. Fortunately, my flight was changed for free ☺️
Nosh
Content: First time trying food from Israel. 10/10 it was open until midnight, when we got to the neighborhood most other places were closed already. After a quick walk through the neighborhood I went to the airport to finally arrive to Oaxaca.
Location: Tepetlixpa
Day 6 - 25 May 2021
Tepetlixpa
Content: Arrived to Oaxaca’s airport and there is no uber there, take the transportation available from the airport, it’s a van and you will be riding with other travelers from your flight and each one will be dropped off at their hotels. I was concerned about finding a taxi but the transportation from the airport worked so well. Once you are settled in your hotel get the number of a trusted taxi company. People in Oaxaca are very kind and friendly. I felt very welcomed ☺️
