Puerto Escondido

I am exhausted of talking about bus travel now so let's focus on the beach. En Route to Acapulco I spent two glorious days in Puerto Escondido, Mexico and almost couldn't bring myself to leave. It is an amazingly backpacker friendly beach with great surf.


This is the life


I even got the chance to test out the Olympus in the ocean and got some good surf pics. Of course right after taking the pics I got crushed by the waves.


I even got some from my board.


Even on a Sunday the town has some nightlife and live music. The guy on the right has an epic mustache.


If you are backpacking through I recommend staying at the Mayflower it is an easy life there.

Heading to Mexico


After spending some time living cheap in this hammock in Antigua Guatemala I decided it was time to head North.

So I checked out of Jungle Party Hostel and said goodbye to Julio and headed out.

My life has become one big bus terminal.

This was my view more or less for the 24 hours it took for me to get to Puerto Escondido, Mexico.
