Smile Hola from Michigan
Greetings from cold Michigan! I love traveling the Mexico Yucatan. My Mexico trips have included Playa del Carmen, Tulum, Cancun, Punta Allen, Cozumel, Nagalos, Holbox Island & Isla Mujeres

Our love of Mexico was also reflected in the choice of our wedding venue. Around 20 of our close family and friends joined us for a Mexican, Caribbean style wedding on the beach at sunset in Cozumel in 2006.

Currently, I’m planning a May trip to Playa del Carmen & Punta Allen. I get my Masters of Counseling in May so its my goal to celebrate graduation with a MX vacation- somehow I will make it happen regardless of the soaring plane ticket prices!

We are budget travelers and stay in no thrill places which are always nice, clean, fun and allow us to travel to MX 2xs a year. I usually do extensive research on the places we stay at and so far they have been better than expected each visit. We carry backpacks when traveling and sometimes check out the places I researched before checking in.

My husband is a crazy, passionate fly fisherman who brings his own gear to each Mexico trip and enjoys fishing from shore. So far his best fishing was in Tulum & Punta Allen (He catches and releases). If anyone has any advise for him fly fishing in the Roo, he would greatly appreciate it! I love the beaches, scenery, culture & shopping of Mexico.

At times I think about living in Mexico in the PDC area and perhaps someday I will act on it. For the meantime I will vacation and do my Mexico research online!

Friends we met on our last MX trip encouraged us to join this forum- thanks "Lovebuds"!

Great to be part of this forum and I’m sure I will utilize it often, so nice to meet you all!

Hola and welcome to In The Roo.

I hear the fly fishing in and around Punta Allen is incredible. Someday, I hope to give it a try.

Congrats in advance on getting your Masters degree!

Were flying into Cancun on May 7 and out on the 14th!!! We plan to visit PDC, Punta Allen and possibly one day/night in Puerto Morelos. I think we will visit PDC during the beginning of the trip- maybe the 7th-10th???. Anyone else gonna be there at that time?? PDC is a good "homebase"!!!

Love your avatar! My hubby and I live in PDC, so remind us when it gets closer to May and perhaps we can get together. Sounds like you have a wonderful trip planned!
