Outside the Mexican magic town of Creel in Chihuahua visitors can walk among giant rock formations. One special place known as the Valley of the Monks or Bisabirachi, is a must visit.

Postcard-Late to the Party in Oaxaca
Walking on the streets of Oaxaca City is a must. And like any Mexican destination, visitors will find surprises. Good surprises.

During my stroll of the streets of […]

Photo Essay: The Town of Yelapa, Mexico

Adventurous Life – The Artist Way to Todo Santos, Mexico
Besides surfing, I knew two things about the Mexican Baja beach town of Todo Santos before I arrived; Hotel California and Artist Galleries. I researched the origin of the words in the Eagles classic and checked out Hotel California on my visit, but I also explored deeper in to Artist world. In fact, each time […]
