  • Mi viaje a México, parte 4
    Mar 22 2026

    In June of 2025 I finally traveled to a place I have wanted to visit for some time: Mexico. The final stop on my Mexico trip was the one I was most excited about: Tulum. The smaller ruins of Tulum are picturesque, located right on the Caribbean coast. There is also a lot of nature to enjoy, and I got to see it up close with a boat ride and canal float.

    In June of 2025 I finally traveled to a place I have wanted to visit for some time: Mexico. In today’s leg of my trip, we left the ruins and the beach behind for a taste of lake life in Bacalar. As a Minnesota girl, I love lake life, and being in the small town of Bacalar was both soothing and uplifting in so many ways.


    This story is in the first person and past tense. Important vocabulary in the story includes: “apenas” (just, barely), “amanecer” (dawn, sunrise), “remar” (to row), “árbol” (tree), and “tinte” (dye).

    In June of 2025 I finally traveled to a place I have wanted to visit for some time: Mexico. My trip to Mexico began with the beach and then the impressive ruins of Chichén Itzá. However, the best moments of the trip were yet to come, including a magical cenote and a more intimate experience with beautiful Mayan ruins.


    This story is in the first person and past tense. Important vocabulary in the story includes: “cenote” (spring fed lake), “piedra” (stone), and “edificio” (building).

Such a lovely way to learn and build confidence - short stories read with clarity and care, and in a lovely voice. My new fave podcast for learning Spanish.

Not spoken by an actual Spanish person, sounds like a beginner reading a script not a native speaker, very poor.
