Wow! You sure gave it the effort! I know some places just need more time, like Bangkok for us, but I don’t think I could be as patient as you were!

It was right on paper, and I couldn’t pinpoint a single wrong thing. But it just wasn’t right. I was there for grad school so I fought that feeling for a year, even switching to a LONGER program in the hopes that something would change. It never did and I wish I had listened to my gut, which was SCREAMING at me to make a change!

Please do! And I’ll do the same when we come to Playa.

If we finally go to Cozumel for a day, I’ll let you know so we can meet again!

Yeah, it was a bummer. Although we got to meet your family and some others which was also nice. 😉

You are right about the smell in the beaches, we used to travel far to enjoy the long and quiet beaches or the Cenotes.
Besides, this time of the year is crowded with tourist and locals enjoying summer vacation.
Playa is not the fisher town it used to be years ago and as it’s growing, the prices do too.

In 5 years living in Playa, we’ve never visit Cozumel, just a few hours to do some paperwork. Hope to see you two again!
I’m glad you finally feel at home.

The gut hardly ever leads us astray!

I may have some kind of empathy gene that guides me that way. When traveling, your instinct goes a long way toward telling you what you should and should not be doing. It’s a survival instinct. I’m glad you listened to your gut rather than your mind, in this instance.

It’s very nice to have somewhere to settle for awhile.

Playa is even worse now than it was 2 years ago. Cozumel is definitely an enjoyable place for us. I doubt it will become our long-term base, but we’re enjoying settling here for a few months.
