Tulum, while so simple in some ways is complicated in others. We’ve tried to explain it here, but what it means for our food guide, is we’ve divided it up into places to eat in Town and then places to eat by the beach. Hope this helps you decipher where and what to eat and […]

Where to eat and drink near the beach in Tulum
Because there’s so many good places and the town is divided into two main areas, the town actual and the beach area, we’ve divided the food list too. Here’s our guide to eating along the Jungle road and on the beach in Tulum. Just a note, since you’re down by the hotels where the people […]
5 reasons you should fly with Air New Zealand
This is in no way endorsed or paid for by Air New Zealand, but we just felt like sharing the best of our recent experience on our flight from Auckland to San Fran, en route to NYC. We’re so quick to complain sometimes, but I reckon you should praise a company if they’ve done good. […]
Our guide to Isla Mujeres – The beautiful island so close, but so far from Cancun
“Tell your enemies about Cancun, tell your friends about Tulum and tell no one about Isla Mujeres.” This phrase we heard from some regular holiday makers pretty much sums up the Yacatan Peninsula. And yes, we’re those people that are breaking the rules and spreading the word about the small, but beautiful island. Here’s our […]
Where to eat and drink in Isla Mujeres
After three nights in Tulum and some of the tastiest food we’ve ever had, it was always going to be a struggle to match it. Isla Mujeres did an alright job, with only one dinner forcing me into a second dinner along the road. Because the island is so quiet in the evening, the beach […]

The thing about the Philippines
It seems that lots of people skip Philippines during their Southeast Asia trip, just because it’s that little bit further away and flights might be a bit more expenny. The sad thing is that the place has had a bad rap too and we ourselves were warned to ‘stay safe’ while we were there. Truth is, we loved this island nation and all the people we met. Here’s why.
Getting around in Asia – all the modes of transport
Figuring out how to get from A to B and anywhere in between can be a bit of a mine field. Each place has it’s own rules, modes of transport and pricing structures. Here’s how we did it and a few things we learned along the way, hopefully making getting around in Asia a bit easier for you.

5 Reasons why everyone should visit Coron
Coron isn’t as well known as the other Palawan destination of El Nido that all the travelers hit up, but I’m glad we picked it. You’ll find somewhere to stay in Coron Town and take day trips from there to the incredible outlying islands, lagoons and coral gardens. The scenery is incredible and the food […]
