After been back from the pyramids we decided to get some proper Mexican food... TACOS 🌮 with beer 🍺.... and after we were meant to partay but we felt asleep as the next day it was our flight to Puerto Escondido 🌊 ☀️

Note to self … bring sunblock, it’s not called pyramid of the sun for no reason… just kidding… (we did get burn tho)

..... after we decided to head out (cos let's face it... time must not be wasted) we went exploring the town, we had some traditional breakfast, I had beans which I must say the LOVE over there cos most dishes, specially breakfast would come with some beans. We also headed to this giant park called basque de Chapultepec located in paseo de la reforma, Where we headed to the zoo. One of the most amazing things is that the park offers a lot of attraction to see and do with no cost or very minimum amount, the zoo was free and very big. It offers quite a lot of space for the animals, however as the zoo it's free we didn't manage to see many staff around, mexico is quite a dry land country and some of the animals didn't have much water.... to tell you the truth it made me a little sad and disappointed... but everyone has their own opinions. After walking around the zoo for hours we continued exploring the town and headed to the heart of the city, it was very beautiful, big, busy. Also another thing I wasn't prepared for is how cold Mexico City was, so if you ever go take jackets and scarfs! At around 6 we decided to head back to the hotel to catch up on some sleep. The original plan was to have a 4hr nap and head out for some drinks .... but we know that wasn't gonna happen, we we're exhausted and ended up knocked out in bed as we knew the next day would be super hectic .... 😴 😴 😴

Mexico 🇲🇽 part 1 We first meet at the airport, think it was terminal 4 where we got the party started with 🍹 cocktails and more booze 🍻 once we boarded the plane, as it was free .... we weren't gonna miss the opportunity. Since there was 3 of us flying together, we all sat together on an 8hr flight.... not gonna lie it was pretty uncomfortable 😣 I didn't managed to sleep throughout the flight, but it wasn't no biggie I was too darn excited to be travelling. We landed extremely early in Mexico City (where we stayed for 3 days) it was around 5am, and we were in a new land... now the best thing is that me and Rachel can speak Spanish, which made it easier.... first thing I did as soon as we arrived was to head to the shop for a redbull, as I knew we weren't gonna be able to get out room for another 7hrs. We tried to find a metro station but we didn't know how to get to it even when we asked around, there didn't seem to be much help as it's not easy to get to from the international airport.... in the end we ended up getting a taxi to our hotel which took about 40-45min. We couldn't get our room immediately as it wasn't ready so we ended up taking a power nap in the waiting room, had breakfast and as soon it hit 8am we headed to explore part of the city.

I must say I never though I would go to Mexico. However when one of my friends asked me if I wanted to go, I wasn’t that interested but inside my mind I had a voice that said “FUCK IT”, I had the time and I had saved enough money to enjoy myself so I totally said ‘sure why not’…. I will never regret my decision What a beautiful country Mexico is, will definitely be going back in the future

EDINBURGH 2015 So after working a couple of moths me and dau decided to run away to Scotland for a mini weekend.... We took an 8hr train ride there and back, which was long but super fun, didn't think England has to many beautiful sceneries specially arriving to the heart of Scotland. First thing we did when we arrived was head straight to the pub since it was bellow our hotel... and boy did we drink.... at night we explored the city, however everything was closed by the time we left the hotel :/ The next morning we got ready and headed to the zoo, where I saw a panda for the first time and OMG can't believe how unbelievably cute they are. If you planing to go to Edinburgh zoo to see the pandas, you must ask for an extra ticket to see the pandas for free, as they have time slots to avoid over crowding... ... we didn't manage to see the whole zoo, but I really recommend it if you enjoy learning and seen animals this is a beautiful zoo. After the zoo we headed to Edinburgh castle, which we were going to go in originally, however while living in England I've had the opportunity to see many castles .... so instead we went to the camera obscure, which is an amazing museum with an amazing view to the city on the top of the building and lots of things to learn about.... I would really recommend it, lots of fun of things to do and learn. in conclusion Edinburgh is a beautiful city, delicious food, friendly people and rainy happy days.

This is just a little video I managed to make about my trip to Colombia in a combination of photos and videos. This video I made as a big thank you to my father, my family and friends for such an amazing experience. If you decide to watch it, hope you like it 😬😘

😔 I can’t believe I didn’t continue with my traveling blog …. but as a catch up, after Colombia I managed to get a job and since I’ve been able to travel a bit more …. and soon I’m gonna do one of my most exciting and expecting trips to Hong Kong and Japan. 
Which I can not wait for ❤️
