Mexico travel diary | one month solo in Mexico part 2

03/03/2023 | Reageer

This morning on November 22 started with an extensive brunch with Cyni at Ki’bok coffee in La Veleta – next to Tulum jungle gym, where I went with my rented bike from my hostel. I have to tell you that I reach almost everything here in Mexico within the villages by bicycle. We ate divinely delicious chilaquiles at this place – which I definitely want to come back for! After lunch we would go with Cyni’s friends to Vagalume, where they also allowed me to enter without an entrance fee and without a minimum spend. Via google maps I followed my way on my bike alone through quite remote roads and I have to tell you that I found that the only time I didn’t feel safe – and that during the day! In the end I suffered on the beach with Cyni’s dear friends – Vagalume is a cool high-end beach club that is known for the ‘hands’ that many people take pictures with. It was very nice to have a drink and relax here. [Lees meer…]

Mexico travel diary | one month solo in Mexico part 1

24/02/2023 | 1 Reactie

On November 17th, I left for Mexico for the 2nd time in a year. This is the ‘official’ 8th trip of this year. This first part is in Playa del Carmen, Holbox and Tulum – the first part of my journey. The reason why I would go for more than a month is because I wanted to bridge the winter in the Netherlands during my annual leave, I wanted to go back to dear friends who live there, I wanted to travel solo again and because my (now former) long-distance love lived in Tulum and I had met there earlier this year – which was originally my biggest reason to stay this long. In this travel diary I explain to you like a diary what I have done and visited during this trip, together with tips. I don’t make this diary too personal, because this trip went differently than the original plan why I came here. [Lees meer…]

This was one of my favorite outfits from Mexico. The photos were taken on Isla Holbox, one of my favorite places in Mexico. In the meantime I’m still working on my Mexico diary! I’ve been back for almost two months now, and I’m going again in two months. Mexico is one of my favorite pieces of beauty in the world. I’m going to shoot alot upcoming time and also have nice projects and trips on the schedule. I hope everything is going well with you too. [Lees meer…]

A month ago I came back from Mexico. What a journey this was! A very emotional one, but also one that has helped me grow a lot and one where I have met a lot of great people. The beautiful place where I took these photos is on the island of Isla Holbox at beach club Zomay. I’ve had this dress for years and I really wear it in a lot of summer places. It’s a dress that never gets boring! I received this hat a few months ago as a collab with Le Olive and I also like to take it on holiday. [Lees meer…]

Hi everyone! This is my last outfit post of 2022. I bought this amazing outfit in Medellín – Colombia, with the idea of taking it to Mexico at the end of the year. I have worn it very often, it is a unique outfit and the quality is also really top. The colorful details make me super happy. These photos were recreated at Selina Tulum. Tulum now feels like my second home because of the people I know there and how often and how long I’ve been there. [Lees meer…]

Outfit | Tulum

28/12/2022 | Reageer

This beautiful outfit is my favorite Tulum outfit. I bought this beautiful boho goddess dress a while ago and this is not a collaboration. I got a lot of questions where I got this beautiful dress from, so I decided to make an outfit post of this outfit. The photos were taken at Mia beach club – Selina hostel los lirios, one of my favorite places in Tulum. I’ve been to this place very often because I’m often backstage at the techno parties because of friends I know. I also stayed here for two nights. Absolutely recommended! When I was here for the first time in May, I was already a fan. [Lees meer…]

Mexico travel diary (Extra long) | Solo trip to Mexico part 2

04/08/2022 | Reageer

Hello everyone! Great that you are reading my second part of my solo Mexico travel diary. This post is extra long because I didn’t want to split it into two more parts. So I would say, take your time with this! haha. I try to describe my diaries extensively, but some things are left out and I also find it unnecessary to share. Moreover, otherwise the text becomes too long, and I try to describe it broadly. During my travels, I also try to keep a general diary here and there in order to expand this later with the photos. I will continue this second part in Tulum. I would like to take you with me in this sequel! Full of tips and experiences. [Lees meer…]

Mexico travel diary | Solo trip to Mexico part 1

16/07/2022 | Reageer

In this travel post I will take you on a solo trip to Mexico, where I will share my experiences and tips extensively, as in a diary. I don’t want to give too much away yet, but to start with how I experienced the whole trip: As one of the most beautiful trips I’ve ever made. Way beyond my expectations. Especially because of the special people and unexpected fun things that I got on my path. This journey literally felt like a pink cloud – pure happiness, great gratitude, euphoria and peace. I am extremely grateful to be able to do these beautiful things in my life and am certainly aware of this privilege. I am grateful that I can give myself solo travel as a gift, and will continue to do so. I hope these travel diaries might inspire you to go on a solo trip yourself. If not, I hope it is at least a fun activity to take you on this 11 day solo adventure. With a big smile on my face, I start this travel diary. Even if nobody would read it, so to speak, I just like to have everything worked out for myself and to be able to share it. I always get that feeling from back then (and a certain homesickness) when I read or type this. My posts are like a kind of public diary. Of course I always write it out in broad outline, otherwise it is really too much to read. [Lees meer…]

MEXICO STORY (read & sound on) 🇲🇽

Something positive I wanted to share about México 🤍

As most people who know me - or who have been following my journey for a while - already understand… this country has brought an incredible amount of blessings into my life. Experiences, friendships, growth, and memories I will carry with me forever.

With everything currently being shared online, I also feel the importance of balance. Yes, staying aware and informed matters - but so does telling the full story.

Three weeks ago, I was there again. And what I experienced was what México has so often shown me: warmth, kindness, music in the streets, spontaneous conversations, familiar smiles, and those beautiful moments that remind you how powerful human connection can be.

México has never been just a destination for me - it has been a place of expansion. A place where I laughed until my cheeks hurt, where strangers became friends, and where I was reminded to live a little softer and a little more present.

Fear travels fast online… but so do gratitude and truth.

So this is your gentle reminder that behind the headlines, there is also so much light. Many areas in Mexico continue to feel warm, welcoming, and safe - and I will always be grateful for every lesson, every memory, and every piece of growth this beautiful country has given me.

Con mucho amor 🇲🇽✨
Mandy

The boutique hostel that changed my life 🇲🇽🌴 (Sound on)

Mayan Monkey Tulum has such a special place in my heart. 🐒🥥
If you’ve been following my Mexico trips for a while, you already know… my life would honestly not look the same if I hadn’t stayed here.

I first arrived in 2022, and somehow I just kept coming back. This place didn’t just give me a bed for the night - it gave me friendships all over the world and some of the best memories of my life.

From the beautiful boutique vibe to the ultra-clean dorms and high-quality private rooms, I’ve genuinely never had a bad stay here. The breakfast, drinks and food are always delicious, well-priced and worth it.

If you’re looking for a stylish, social hostel in Tulum that feels almost like a resort - but still close enough to the beach - this is your sign.

✨ Who knows… it might just change your life too.

Recently - I visited Cancún for two nights at @mayanmonkey_ 🌴
A popular Mexican boutique hostel brand I know for a long time and have also visited often in Tulum. 

The trip started with joining one of the cabin crew members I already knew in advance and was coincidentally on this flight. We both had no solid plans so it was lovely to spend time together.

Thank you @mayanmonkey_ for the lovely stay! 🐒

More video’s soon ✨
