Spirit / In my last post on our mexican trip & the Temescal, I mentioned the extremely touristy side of Cancún, Playa del Carmen and Tulum -which is still more authentic and less crowded than the other 2 -… For that reason,we carefully avoided Playa and Cancùn, but we still spent a few days in Tùlum , in the main street which overlooks the ocean, and where there are all hotels, cute shops and restaurants one after another.. In spite of the …

Diwali, or Tihar ; the light festival.. Here I am, back to Katmandu after my dreamy stay in the jungle, to celebrate the light festival.. The locals are quite busy getting ready to celebrate and you can feel the atmosphere has changed in the streets of Thamel or Baktapur, which are even more so crowded and agitated as usual.. To give you an idea of …
