Ruins, again. Chichen Itza, boys and girls!


Can't get enough of ruins. Always fun and joy to me. I am so blessed to be living to so many old Mayan cities to explore them. And not even once. During my mother-in-law visit I took her to visit Chichen Itza. It's a classic staple sight, modern world wonder and so on. Definitely my least favorite but it is a must visit for any person who visits Yucatan peninsula for the first time.





I wore travel uniform. Comfortable top, jeans (to survive AC in the bus for me, and also a good buffer from mosquitos) and flip flops. I'd recommend you wearing sneakers if you are not wearing flip flops all the time and feel just as comfortable.


I was wearing:
Levi's jeans
H&M top
handmade bracelets and necklace
Optima flip flops

 

Have a nice day,
Lyosha

  1. That's great that you were able to explore these ruins. We love visiting Mexico and seeing different Mayan Ruins. Chichen Itza has become quite crowded lately, and we actually climbed the temple about 20 years ago when we were there - of course it has since been closed to going on the temple. What is your favorite Mayan Ruin?

    1. probably Ek Balam. You can directly interact with the ruins, the territory is big so you can walk there and it's less touristy. The most flashy are Tulum: the sea does a lot with an impact. Also there are TONS of iguanas everywhere and I love them endlessly. I also want to mention Muyul: they are tiny but have the most unique temple and are linked to a wonderful nature park and superb cenotes just around the corner. There are literally nobody there and the nature is a marvel. having a boat tour will give SO much! perfect for birdwatching too.

    1. I hope you will like it here. Literally there is SO much history everywhere in Mexico, it's very hard to miss whatever region you choose.

  6. You're so funny! Hope the ruins don't ruin it for you ;-) We visited some of the ruins during our stay in Puerto Morelos and I really loved it. Yucatan is such a wonderful place once you get away from the mass tourist places.
    Hope you're enjoying it to the max! :-)

    1. I agree. Touristy places are fun when you are tourist but no fun if you are a traveler or an expat like me. However when a real tourist comes to visit you, you need to bend from time to time

  8. This place has been on my bucket list (well Mexico in general itself) for too long.. and I recall first reading about the Mayans in a storybook when I was a kid and being fascinated by them ... seeing these will feel like stepping back in time..

Jaime Ibiza Fashion show

It's been awhile since I have visited a  fashion show. I am so excited to get to see it from time to time here. This time I was happy enjoy and bag and luggage fashion show. The designer is pretty famous here in Mexico. He is from Guadalajara. I absolutely enjoyed the spectacle and the bags. I can easily see me rocking any of those!  Luggage collection was a special surprice. It is the first and new collection and it features cute styles, great quality and interesting shapes to carry you stuff the best way possible making trips even more enjoyable. I wore a very casual look. All brows, cute little back and comfortable shoes. I didn't get to wear something special because I was on a  go and in a bit of a hurry as I have had things to do right after. It was a great experience. I hope to see more fashion shows here. I was wearing: Cuidado con el Perro skirt and shoes MiuMiu bag H&M top   Have a nice day, Lyosha  

Ruinas El Rey

Archeological site El Rey is located in the Cancun hotel zone, right next to the most scenic beach in my opinion playa Delfines. The part of the ancient town is actually located in the nearby museum Museo Maya Cancun (if you ever visit it, don't forget to also check the ruins in the garden). But the original town was a lot more than what you see in the museum. I highly suggest you to walk a little bit further and explore the ruins of the right hand side right after playa Delfines. It is a very tranquil place with lots of iguanas for the inthuiasts and ruins to explore. the entrance is inexpensive as well. My family had a lot of fun exploring the small ruins of our town. I have chosen to wear my favorite wideleg jeans, a crop top and practical closed shoes (I always suggest some soft of closed toes shoes to explore the ruins, it allows you to move freely without worring to hurt your  feet). Definitely perfect for a relaxing weekend I was wearing:   Have a nice day...

Nicosia crush

I normally post my vacation reports when I am on other vacation but what are the rules if not break them from time to time. Today I want to share with you some special moment of trip to Cyprus last month. I finally reached Nicosia, the Cyprus capital and met a fellow blogger. Nicosia is not only a capital but also the only capital divided in two: Cyprus part and Turkish part. But it is not the only nice thing about it. The city is beautiful and made for walking. It is so nice and easy to simply walk around the narrow streets wondering what next corner will bring. Great place to hang out especially accompanied with local guide and a fellow fashion blogger. I was so happy I spent my day in Nicosia that I wanted to share it with you the soonest. So here it is.   My outfit was based on the weather. I wore my yoga leggings and top from Tonica (yes, guilty of over wearing but it is just too comfy), Uniqlo vest because it is the best ever thing to keep yourself warm,...
