Travel Guide

This weekend, I was invited to document a Hanal Pixán ceremony in 3 Reyes, Yucatan—a mayan community working hard on saving their ancient customs.

They had told me not to expect anything crazy, but they ended up blowing my mind.

I got invited to take pictures at a very special Day of the Dead ceremony in 3 Reyes—a small Mayan community in the state of Yucatan.

To witness this side of my own country, relatively unknown to the most of us, is such a beautiful feeling!
Hanal Pixan stands for "The Feast of Souls"; and you can clearly appreciate that fact in every altar around 3 Reyes.

Amazing rooms. Beautiful hotel. Amazing cocktails and food… truly amazing service…. but… No coffee in your room or alcohol in the minibar so maybe bring your own. Maybe we should have called for room service. It is so close to the ruins and right on the lake. Lovely walks around the city. Definitely ...

While this hotel is pleasant enough and reasonably handy for the ruins the the big drawback is the food. This chain has a common menue throughout and, apart from breakfast, the food is unimaginative and poorly cooked. There are, however, local restaurants where the food is much better.
