Seeing another side of Guatemala by visiting the coastal town of Livingston, a melting pot of Garifuna, Afro-Caribbean and Maya culture. 🌴
One day you will wake up, and there won’t be any more time to do the things you’ve always wanted. Do it now. 🌞 -Paulo Coelho
Combine 8 hours of chicken bus (local transportation) with 120km of hiking in the heart of the Guatemalan jungle, add 2 slightly crazy adventurous backpackers and just for the thrill of it, substitute a local guide. 😛 You’ll obtain the most memorable experience to get to the capital of the Mayan world, El Mirador. We got to discovered untouched 3000 years old ruins, watch unbelievable sunsets on the highest Mayan pyramid in the world, sleep with the sounds of monkeys and wild geese, eat tuna sandwiches everyday and meet some of the most generous and genuine Guatemaltecos. Merci à mon partner in crime de m’avoir suivi dans cette aventure @tiik0z! We nailed it. #teamwarriors 💪🏻 . . . Blog post: https://jujuenroute.com/2019/04/15/my-trek-to-the-lost-mayan-capital/
Planning the next adventure... 🏕🐒🍃 #elmirador
Feeling the energy of the Maya ✨ . . Tikal is one of the largest archeological sites in the pre-Columbian Maya civilization. It became one of the most powerful kingdoms back in the years 300 to 900 AD, with a population of more than 100 000. However, the city feel into a decline and the site was abandoned by the end of the 10th century. The causes of the empire’s collapse remain a mystery still today... how impressive was it to explore this lost city located in the heart of the beautiful Guatemalan rainforest. 🍃
The more I travel, the younger I feel. I have never felt that much alive in my 31 years of living. I am not exactly sure where I am heading. I don’t have the big picture planned in my head, but it’s ok. I am happy at this moment and this is what’s important. Never forget to live your life for you. This is where you’ll find your happiness, your path, your purpose. ✌🏻
