CANCUN!

 Well, here I am in Cancun, Mexico. I landed a month ago and found a great Air BNB right downtown in Cancun. That is, if you can call anywhere in Cancun "downtown". But, it was in the middle of town and it cost a mere 400 pesos per night. And this wasn't your shared type of Air BNB. It was a private room with a double bed and private bathroom. Complete with air con that you don't have to pay for. What more could you want besides a teensy swimming pool in the entrance way? Which they have.


Walmart is right around the corner only four blocks away. It's not exactly a Walmart as we know it but close enough. They have a McDonald's where you can get a great cup of coffee and (if you're brave) a double big mac burger. I won't do that again though because, well, it went right through me. I still have to get adjusted to the environment.


Not long after arriving, I looked up on Craigslist for a private house to rent and found a cute little apartment on the opposite side of town. It was fully furnished and had three overhead fans and two air conditioners along with all the kitchen utensils one would find necessary. 



                                                            All this for 10,000 pesos. 


However, what you really want to know about is the beach! Right? Well, the beaches here are... TO DIE FOR. And that's an understatement. Ask any tourist. This is thee tourist destination for the majority of tourists worldwide. If you love warm, turquois water touching a pristine white beach, Cancun is for YOU.








Or, if you happen to be a total tree freak like me, you'll love it here, too. Gorgeous trees.
