Hi there,
The almost year-long lockdown has been very depressive. Basically we've not been allowed to travel. Thanks God, Mexico opened up again a few months ago, and it's one of the few countries that we can visit now.
Mexico is very nice to people in Canada. No matter you're a citizen, Maple Leave Card holder, or on study or work visa, as long as you can legally visit Canada, you can legally visit Mexico without a Mexican visa.
I've been to Mexico a few times. But Mexico is so big and has so many places to visit. So I'm planning a 2-week-trip to Mexico during the coldest days of Canada, i.e. Late January to mid February. After an extensive research, I came out with a road trip itinerary.
The features of this trip are:
- The destination of one of the planet's most spectacular butterfly migrations. (Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve)
- Natural hot springs, spas, and pools. (Los Azufres Spa Natural & Manantial Media Luna)
- Climbing a baby volcano, only 77 years old. See a church buried by lava. (Volcano Paricutín)
- A colonial town, rich in culture and history, with music, dance, architecture, and among the best culinary experiences in the country. (San Miguel de Allende)
- Incredible waterfalls that "look as though they've been photoshopped". (Cascade de Tamul & Cascadas de Minas Viejas)
- A coastal town famous for its seafood. (Tampico)
- Caribbean beaches for local Mexicans (Playa De Tamiahua)
To have a rough idea, have a look at the following images.

The budget of this trip is from 2000 to 2500 in CAD, per person.
I'm going to rent a car for the whole trip. Although COVID is no longer a big concern in Mexico, by renting a car, we don't need to use public transportation so we feel it's even safer.
I'm a very experienced traveler. I travelled abroad each year. This time I'd like to find a travel pal to go together. I'm mature, respectful, reliable, open-minded and easy-going.
I expect you to be such a person:
- You are a female
- You enjoy nature and culture
- You are fit, being able to hike steep and rugged trail.
- You are easy-going and open-minded too.
- You are positive and cheerful.
- You are open to Mexican cuisine; You're not a vegetarian.
- You are a safe driver
Please send me a private message if you are interested in it, or if you have any questions.
Thanks for reading.
