As Rita and I waved goodbye to our Knoxville abode, little did we know that the salty breeze of Playa del Carmen would become our new lullaby. Our latest episode is a tapestry of tales from our sun-kissed days at Sunset Fisherman's Spa and Resort, to the cultural weave of Cozumel where we rendezvoused with Bel Woodhouse, International Living's Mexico correspondent. Bel's perspective enriched our understanding of the island's vibrant tourism and community spirit. We spill the beans on the mouth-watering food scene that now caters to vegans and international palates alike and share our insights into the local markets' culinary treasures that would make any food aficionado's heart sing.

Our exploration doesn't stop at gastronomy; we immerse ourselves in the heart of Maya culture, discussing the significance of Cozumel's San Miguel and the mystic ruins. Then, we discuss Tulum, offering you a front-row seat to the bustling growth and enriching history of this archaeological gem. Before we sign off, we tease our next stop, the enchanting San Miguel de Allende, promising more stories woven with the threads of adventure and cultural discovery. Join us, share in our journey, and let us inspire you to embark on your own adventures, because as we've learned, life's essence is best embraced through the joy of exploration.
