America

As we arrived at Zion National Park I was completely amazed by the opening scene; we were greeted by Zion’s Canyon as we entered in a shuttle bus and the red mountains and rocks surrounded us.

I’d heard about Bryce Canyon on various occasions, a National Park on the US known for its unique formations/pillars called hoodoos that spread throughout the Park: but it wasn’t until we visited it last October that I finally learned why this destination was so famous.

One experience I’d always wanted to try in Mexico was the now well known Toluca – Valle weekend hike. I’d heard about it for a few times but it wasn’t until last September I had the chance to go and experience it on my own.

I’d only been to Tulum once before, when I was a little girl and I actually never thought I’d return so quickly.

Chicago is a city that really captured my heart; from its buildings, food and people to its vibe in general.

Having lived in Queretaro for more than 15 years I am a little embarrassed that I hadn’t been to Bernal,

Mexico City is without a doubt a very chaotic and big city, full of tall buildings, thousands of streets and too many cars,

My parents have always been fans of Las Vegas; since I was a little girl they’ve always talked about how fun and different it is from any city in the US.

Sin City can be famous for many things and one of them definitely should be the amount of options of food you can find in here!

Wine has always been a very important drink to me, as I’d already shared earlier Wine has always been in my life.

Mexico City has always been famous for its rich variety of culture and historic places to visit; which is why I was so excited when we decided to visit the Chapultepec Castle as a Saturday activity.

Wine is something my father has always enjoyed, all my childhood I remember seeing him in restaurants and events trying different types of wines and enjoying them.

Volunteering has always been a part of my life. Since I was little my parents tried to teach me to always give back and help others;

My hometown has always been small, but when it comes to food the options are never disappointing; from Italian, to mediterranean or simply mexican,

We arrived to the Falls with anxiousness running through us, we would only be staying there for one night so we decided to make the best out of our time.

Tequila is a place I’ve heard about for a long time, but it wasn’t until last weekend that I had the chance to finally meet it.

San Miguel is a town famous for many of its characteristics, but specially because of its delicious food and exotic new restaurants.

The wonders of the world are named Wonders because of the immense sensation of wonder they start in you; and it is without a doubt that Machu Picchu indeed filled my mind and spirit with wonder and joy.

Peru was a country I’d seen in movies and heard about my parents hundreds of times when I was little;

I’ve always been in love with my country, for its culture, history, landscape, food and especially for its people. And as I’ve had the blessing to travel the world I’ve also had the opportunity to hear what people think about Mexico and the stereotypes it has.

San Miguel is a place that has always catched my eye, for it’s bright colors, unique architecture and delicious food,

When it comes to a city like Vancouver expectations are high, weather it’s for museums, architecture or food, and with no doubt we can say that our stomachs were highly pleased with the results,

Vancouver was our pit stop on our way back from Whistler, so we got the chance to visit this beautiful city in around 24 Hours.

Food is the way to a man’s soul, which is why it should come as no surprise that while we visited Whistler we tried to eat at some of the best places there.

Whistler wonderland is a term well used when referring to a beautiful snowed location where you are, and that’s exactly what Whistler meant to us.

They say “Home is where the heart is” and I’ve lived in Queretaro all my life, but it hasn’t been until latest years that I’ve really understood the meaning of that phrase and have actually appreciated this beautiful city I live in.

As we looked through the airplane window we could see the hundreds of different shades of blue that were starting to appear in front of our eyes.

The road from Muskoka Lakes to Ottawa was one of the longest we drove through, the whole trip ended up being almost 5 hours so we did get a chance to admire all the various Canadian landscapes.

Since I was little I’ve always been in love with Ixtapa, Zihuatanejo. It has always been one of my favorite places to go on vacation and relax.

The journey to Muskoka was one of the most beautiful road trips we had on our entire trip; to get to our hotel we had to go through many mountains,

There’s nothing that can make you day better than chocolate, and this store in Quebec City definitely knows what they’re talking about!

For this occasion we decided that our trip through Canada would be a road trip, and we would rent a van and drive through all the cities we wanted to visit.

The province of Quebec, nothing makes you realize that you are entering it as much as seeing all the road sings slowly start to change from English to French.

As a Mexican myself, I’ve always been amazed by my birth city; Mexico City is the 5th largest city in the World and it sure feels like it.

During our trip to Canada one of our essentials in it’s hot summer days was definitely Ice Cream!

Toronto is a city famous for it’s trendy buildings, restaurants and new neighborhoods, and that’s exactly why we decided to visit it.

As our plane took off from Cartagena we were sad to leave it’s tropical weather and colorful streets, but the colorful landscapes in our trip were just beginning.

We arrived to Bogotá an hour after we took off from Medellin. Firstly we went to our hotel to leave our belongings and since we arrived rather late that same day we decided to have dinner in our hotel and sleep in that night (we needed to recover some energy to explore Bogotá and all it had to offer as best as possible).

Hundreds of streets filled with colorful houses, plants and palm trees surrounding every corner, and a warm weather that makes you want to go for a swim that exact moment.
