Our First Impressions of Guanajuato, Mexico

As our very comfortable (and overpriced) bus arrived in Guanajuato from Guadalajara, we were both a tad disappointed at what we saw. The city was supposed to be UNESCO listed and from what we had heard, it was a must-see while in Mexico. From the bus window, we didn’t see any interesting buildings, no historical sites and ...

Exploring Guadalajara, Mexico – Mariachi, Museums and Markets!

The Goats Are On The Road! Our Journey From Grenada to Mexico

It was a long and emotional journey travelling to Mexico from Grenada, but after 22 hours of flying on a horrible airline and freezing in various airports, we arrived in Puerto Vallarta! We felt like proper backpackers again with our bags slung over our shoulders as we waited for the local bus to take us to ...
