This week on the podcast we are continuing to share our Mexican adventures! The first weekend trip we took in Mexico was to visit friends in Merida, Mexico. Prior to being in Mexico, we had never even heard of Merida, and we were pleasantly surprised when we visited.
Merida is in the Yucatan state of Mexico, and it’s know for it’s cute historic center, amazing food, and cenotes! We had 3 days to explore Merida, and on this episode we share what our experience was like in Merida. We also pulled in our fellow travel bloggers and friends Meg & Tom from Food, Fun Travel, Nathan Aguilera from Foodie Flashpacker and Nate Hake from Travel Lemming who were all living in Merida when we went to share some of their recommendations to eat, see and do, what they love about Merida, and why it’s a great hub for digital nomads.
Enjoy!
