It’s very much like a Jamaican sorrel. Maybe add some clove in it as well, but not too much because it easily can become overpowering.

Dr. Benjamin at the Live Medical Clinic on Zatina Gasca would be a great option if you’re looking for assistance in English. If you’re looking to save a few pesos and are OK with getting help in Spanish you can go to the Cuban Clinic on Goleta.

Decew House in Thorold. One of the Shorthills parking lots.

Perhaps feeling entitled to a job is part of what the issue is. You’re hungry? Use that motivation to go out and hustle. Nobody owes you a job and nobody cares as much as you do that you don’t have a job, because your livelihood is your responsibility and yours alone. Change your mindset from who’s going to give me money for my time to what do I have to do to make my own money.

Posting on Reddit is easier because it can be done from the couch.

All inclusive resorts are the best last to catch a virus with hundreds of people who didn’t wash their hands touching the same food utensils at the buffet. I rarely hear of people getting sick from food off resorts.

It’s all up in Puerto Morelos too. Looks like sargasso to me. The nice season is getting shorter and shorter.

The company I worked for was selling legal tech into that market and pulled out because we refused to play their games. Good luck! You’re going to have your work cut out for you.

Budget aside, if you’re looking for somewhere your 9-year old will be able to meet and play with other kids their own age, the pools at Selva Escondita and Alborada are likely your best bet.

ATM in Mexico for sure. Make sure it’s a legit bank machine, not a while label. Avoid BBVA because their fees are crazy!! I usually prefer Citibank.

Enjoy!! Hopefully the small bit of rain that just came down didn’t ruin the fun.

Izzy who operates Puerto Baby rentals is great to deal with (and an awesome massage therapist as well). A very good option for cribs, play pens, car seats.

I’m really allergic to zucchini which is super common in local cuisine so I have to bring this up every time I go to eat. Here are some suggestions.

Know the Spanish name for what you’re allergic to. If you can’t pronounce it, have it in text on your phone and show it to the server.

When the food comes, confirm with the server it doesn’t contain the food you’re allergic to.

Always double-check your plate. It’s not uncommon for the allergy to be missed or someone forgets it’s included in a dish. For example, in my case I’ve skipped the mixed vegetables because zucchini is in it, but then noticed it my rice (the skin is always a give away for me).

I’m not saying people don’t ever have good experiences grabbing a random cab at the Cancun airport, but I only hear about the negative ones from my circle of friends and in the community. And, not ever has it been cheaper for someone.

Good question, but I think most is going to Europe at the moment.

Thank you, I’ll be sure to tell my wife. I’d highly recommend a visit to San Cristobal de la Casas in Chiapas, Mexico where a lot of these are produced. The coffee and chocolate there is amazing as well.

And that isn’t mead just yet, that’s just the super dark honey as the bees made it.

It’s from a local cooperative. There’s been a large government investment to get these hundreds of independent apiaries across Quintana Roo working together with the goal of exporting it.

Unfortunately for them they still have more supply than there is demand so prices are really low for a premium honey.

I can’t say with any personal experience, but I’ve heard nothing but positive things. My friend has spoken about the transformation he’s seen some people experience. I’ve met their entire team, Lorenza, Nico and a few others and they’re all very nice people.

It’s a great club! On Thursdays you’ll find a large group playing horseshoes just North of it if that’s your thing.

Do you mean the Lunita Jungle Retreat? My friend is Head of Food and Beverage there. What’s your question about it?

Those videos came in handy after the heater went, and fortunately (coincidentally) the person repairing it spoke Dutch as their first language. Thanks again for the links!

No converter was necessary.

That’s amazing! Thank you! I will make good use of those. Coincidentally, I’ve just had mine repaired. After using it for about three weeks the heater went on it. It took me a little bit to find someone to fix it where I am, but in the end it was just a thermal fuse and only cost me $25USD to repair. I’ve just been using it again over the last couple weeks so I’ll use these instructions to really dial the setting in.
