Zipolite Scoping!! I woke very early this morning and was very thankful for the roof fan that stopped me sweating my arse off all night. After having an early breakfast and doing my yoga I packed my things ready for a trip to Zipolite (the famous nudist beach). It took me nearly 45 minutes to get a collectivo (turns out I was looking for wrong type of vehicle) out to Zipolite. Zipolite is a small resort town with a population of under 1000 people and as its quiet...

Free Day!! With not much planned today I took it easy in the morning and had a very lazy start to the day. I walked around the town a little and sat at the wharf again watching the fisherman bring in fish after fish. The sun poked its head out so I took the chance to head to the beach get some sun and see if I could get some idea of what I want to do for next month. It came to me that I am happiest and most at ease when I am near the ocean, I don't handle cities ...

Pochutla Monday Markets!! I was up bright and early today: after a very hot night and not too much sleep. I feel very comfortable at Serena's; a lot more so then I did in San Cristobal. I am half thinking to stick around here for a while more, get to know Serena's farm and help the family setup a website for their hotel. At 8:30am when Serena and Carrie finally got up we headed to Pochutla in Serena's car. The trip into the city was interesting and Serena told me...

Puerto Angel!! The bus stopped constantly in the morning and by 6:50am we had reached our destination. Unfortunately it was cold and wet and people were not so friendly - informing us there were no collectivos to Puerto Angel and we would have to take an expensive taxi. Carrie doesn't speak any Spanish so I explained we would need to walk a little and hopefully find some more friendly people that would give us the right info. Sure enough we found some friendly pe...

Time to Go!! I managed to get 6 good hours or so of sleep lastnight so I am happy this morning. First thing i did was head down to bus ticket office and buy my ticket for Pochutla (pacific coast) - 11 hour overnight bus ride. the bus tockets here in Mexico are quite expensive but the buses are very luxurious with toilets, TVs and lay-back seats. Before Erick and his room mate left for work we all had a late breakfast together which was fried tortillas, fried eggs...
