Hostel La Parroquia is located  on Calle 55 Number 8 between Calle 10 and Calle 12, in the central colonial district of Campeche. Hostel La Parroquia is in a 17th century colonial house 10 minutes from the bus station. There is a good restaurant located next door with the same name that is ope…

We arrived in Campeche at 3 AM. Because everything had gone slightly different than planned we had not booked any hotel. Fortunately Campeche is not short on cheap hotels. Cheap hotels willing to sell you a room at 3 AM are a little more rare though. Three times a sleepy night porter grumpily shou…

My month in Mexico

… supersized shrimps for dinner, jump-diving in waterfall pools, playing soccer with locals on a Caribbean beach, intellectual debates with Russians, practicing guitar for hours, taking my first steps in entomology. I somehow managed to stuff my last 10 days in Guatemala with all of that. Livings…

Hola a todos, We arrived in Cidad del Carmen at 7am and took the bus to Campeche at 8am and arrived at Campeche around 11am. We found our Monkey hostel quite easily. We took a shower and went to the beach to relax. After that, we went back to visit Campeche and its wonderful colored stre…

After our visit in uxmal we drove down to the pacific cost to Campeche where we stayed for the second night. Campeche is not really a full of live town but very nice with a seafront road where you can walk and enjoy the sunset! After finding a hotel, which was not the best place ever we thought, …

Trotz kurzer Nacht waren wir um 7h schon wieder auf, um uns auf die naechste Tour mit Endziel  Merida zu begeben. Aber dank der kalten Dusche war man nicht zu lange muede...Als erstes haben wir Edzna besucht, eine sehr huebsche "Ruinen-Anlage". Herausragend war hier die den Platz dominierende…

so we safely arrived in Campeche from Merida and settled into the bus station nicely. Sky was beautiful, only a second later to turn into a tropical rainstorm, so we officially have lived through one from being dumped by the taxi driver and finally finding our hostel, although we felt like drowned …
