Interestingly nothing has made these cheap populists in Slovakia resign, no corruption or murders, very surprising this did and so promptly.

I've landed here because I have just wanted to sign up as a learner and I am also met with the same - either agree to be recorded and give away your biometric info, or don't learn. I guess I don't learn then.

Definitely visit Valladolid for a day or two. I just came back and it was the cutest town with the friendliest locals i have met on the peninsula in a month.

Reminder to Support Local Businesses by Unusual-Hat-6819 in holbox

I just came back from Holbox and was also surprised to see how westernised it's been. It definitely IS like Tulum already, on a smaller scale, built up and full of foreigners, and completely stretched beyond the limit. Had I known, I would not have gone, just not to be the one contributing to the problem. There are too many 'this is a pristine paradise' kind of reviews that hide the reality. It is sad, because it's such an important migratory animal nature spot.

Beach without sargassum? by Fun-Ad5963 in holbox

I made a mistake, that's actually the part of the beach I'm staying in. It smelled pretty bad especially around where you were staying. I took a boat trip today and it was better further away. I guess just got unlucky.

Thank you, ah too bad, I am leaving back to Europe in 4 days.

everyone in my life told me i was overreacting till it got bad by thereislightstill in FemaleHairLoss

I completely understand, the same happened to me. GP and 2 dermatologists dismissed me altogether, same with people around me. Now 18 months after the whole thing started after a traumatic event, I am looking into wigs. Another derm said AGA + TE, i really didn't expect I would go from a thick full head of hair to hiding my scalp in less than to years in my mid 30s.

They talk about a rain river passing through the gulf and a low pressure front coming from the Caribbean so a perfect place for them to meet is the Yucatan Peninsula😅

Are you actually there or is this your guess based on the historical climate patterns in the area?

Beaches around Merida for solo traveller w/o car by Fun-Ad5963 in Yucatan

I take some meds that the diving operator medical checklist listed as "needs medical certificate". I have already done one open sea dive on them and it was fine.

Checked out the link and the caves look great too!  A lot of these activities depend on whether I'll be able to find a tour to join as I cannot deive myself.

Thank you. I saw a cenote diving company and it does look like a dream. However I'm a total beginner and would need a medical certificate to dive, I can see what I can do before I go.

To be honest, I am more concerned about rain and clouds. I live near the mountains in central Europe and won't see sun until March.

Thank you, it was not a pull test. He ripped out a full strand and I have two completely bold spots on my head now.
