Cancun, Playa del Carmen and Tulum - The Caribbean!!

So after our four months in Europe, we were pretty excited to finally reach Mexico.  We flew into Cancun and stayed for three nights in a hostel and couchsurfing, before moving onto Playa del Carmen for 3 nights.  We were throwing around the idea of buying bikes and riding south, but the distances were long and days hot, so we decided to stick with the bus until we got to a better climate.  After Playa, we moved on to Tulum where we camped on the beach for three nights. The beaches were amazing, weather was beautiful and of course the beer was great too!  Here are a few shots from the first week in Mexico!

 This is where we spent most of the first day in Cancun - on the beach with beers in hand!

About Us

We are an Australian couple who love to travel as much as we can. Our first backpacking adventure began in 2007 when we travelled through Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam and southern China for 3 months before settling in Beijing for 6 months to teach English. Beijing proved a great base to earn enough money to continue travelling as Cameron managed to get to South Korea and Japan for 2 months, before we both went to Canada at the end of 2008. We then worked and travelled in Canada and the US for about 8 months before heading home to finish university. After graduating university, Cameron as a secondary English and Social Science teacher and Cassie as a human services worker, we worked for two years before heading off for our next adventure. This time, we left Australia on Christmas day 2012 and travelled through Europe for 4 months before heading for Central America. We initially intended to travel in Central America for 3 months but ended up staying for eleven. This trip has seen us travel through over 20 countries in 12 months and we are not intending to stop just yet!
