Wellness at Villa del Palmar Loreto

Posted on April 19, 2016 by Lesley | 30 Comments

People always ask me what’s the worst part of my job as a blogger and travel writer and I usually come up with a blanket statement about scheduling or planning or time management because the truth is too personal to share.

Posted on October 29, 2015 by Lesley | 13 Comments

There is no denying that I was petrified to go cage diving with great white sharks.

Riviera Cancun keeps me coming back again and again. It offers natural, cultural and ecological wonders that delight me with every new encounter. It’s rare for me to want to visit a place repeatedly.

Posted on January 3, 2015 by Lesley | 2 Comments

Ziplining had always been on my bucket list, so upon getting the chance to fly through the air with Costa Azul Extreme Canopy Tour in Cabo San Lucas, I would have been a fool to pass it up! However, that doesn’t necessarily mean I wasn’t nervous. I mean, entrusting a dinky harness and a few cables to hold you up…
