Mex Life | We Moved! New Adventures Up the Coast
After a month Stateside visiting family and friends, we’re back in Mexico – with resident visas and a new address!

We suddenly find ourselves in lockdown one Saturday morning, but not for the typical 2020/21 reasons. Tales from the darker side of living in Mexico in the 21st century.
Literally none of Noe’s friends here have short hair. But there comes a time, even in Sayulita, when seawater, sand, heat, and humidity no longer play nice and tough decisions have to be made.
As Mexican as apple pie is American, but you’d be hard pressed to find a molcajete on the menu of a Mexican restaurant in the States. That, plus leaves. Lots and lots of leaves.
To San Pancho! Again! But this time ON FOOT from Sayulita. 6 miles… over ridges and through dense jungle… on rarely used paths… using what we think is a reliable map. What could go wrong?
Our latest jungle discoveries, the return of our golf cart after a long three week absence, and why you won’t see us buying land in Sayulita any time soon.
A strange anomaly sends us back in time while hiking through a vortex in search of a mysterious jungle temple and a mystical clay healing beach (no joke).
We’re told you can’t have a golf cart in Sayulita without your fair share of problems. Deceptively simple machines, but no match for salt air, tropical heat, and harsh terrain.
All beaches in Mexico are public land and open to everyone. Getting to them is a different story. More adventures in accessing Nayarit’s beautiful beaches by any means necessary.
Birthday explorations and highlights in our little tropical corner of the world.
Continuing our New Years tradition of long hikes, we attempt our longest one with the boys yet – a six miler through jungles and streams to Playa Patzcuaro.
Finishing 2020 the way we started it, at the beach! Just on a different continent. Highlights from the waning days of a helluva year.
Surprise! Nope, we’re not wanted by U.S. Marshalls, and we didn’t make a run for the border, though that would’ve certainly made things more interesting. Read on to find out more.
It’s that time of the year! While the country has changed [again], we continue our tradition of keeping it simple, unplanned, and time together.
Taking advantage of a relaxed week of fun in the sun and cooler temps, in the run-up to the dreaded holiday onslaught of tourists, both foreign and domestic.
Welcoming cooler weather and the calm before the holiday tourist storm in Sayulita.
Setting out in search of the last of the beaches that we can reasonably access with a golf cart and two feet. Plus more from early December.
Discovering a one-of-a-kind market, an [almost] perfect beach, and a cafe doubling as the final resting place for its patrons, on a day trip to an unpronounceable town on Banderas Bay.
