Finally updated my travel map 🗺 Lots more pins from my sabbatical! 🙂 Interactive link in bio.

And so after 4½ months, the adventure ends! 🛬

Spent my last day in Mexico exploring cenotes 😍 The Yucatán Peninsula is composed of limestone, which dissolves to form underground streams and caverns. When these collapse, they form one of the ~10,000 sinkholes (cenotes) in the region. The area has very little surface water due to the porous limestone, but the cenotes are below the water table and filled with groundwater, so formed the principal source of fresh water for the Mayan Empire; they continue to provide water for the area today.

What's that you say? Splash out on a penthouse room with private rooftop pool overlooking the jungle for my last two nights? OH OKAY TWIST MY ARM GO ON THEN 😁😍
