Traveling to find yourself is one of the essential trips that must be done at least once in a lifetime. To achieve the goal of connecting with your inner voice, emotions, restructuring your reality or defining new goals, it’s very efficient to escape from the routine and our common places. That’s why it’s essential to choose a destination that offers us disconnection from the world and allows us to connect with nature.
An incredible place to take a trip of this nature is Tulum. Definitely, this caribbean town has a special magnetism that attracts travelers from all over the world. The reasons are very clear: the exuberant jungle, the impressive cenotes and lagoons of crystalline waters, the turquoise sea and the white sand of exquisite beauty. But not only that, it is its bohochic atmosphere - also known as barefoot luxury- that makes it a real Eden.
While other destinations of the Mexican Caribbean, like Playa del Carmen or Cancun, are famous for its hectic nightlife, here people prefer meditation sessions, yoga, sound healing and any type of shamanic ceremony that you can think of. This makes Tulum a good place to start in this type of practices that will allow you to connect with yourself without losing a gram of style.
Picture yourself waking up in the middle of the jungle with the first rays of the sun and bird chants. You take a deep breath, stretch and give thanks. Then you go to a yoga class and meet new friends with like-minded ideas. At night a sky full of stars and the symphony of jungle sounds. That is what Tulum offers us.
You can’t leave without renting a bike, so that you can enjoy the beauty of Tulum like the Mayan ruins, a must-see destination that you cannot miss. The lagoon of Kaan Lum is another must, for its crystalline waters and sulphurous sand that many ensure have beneficial properties for the skin. Tulum it’s a worldwide hot spot destination to enjoy a day at the beach, so don’t forget to spend the day at their mind blowing shores.
Finding your inner self does not always require isolation, but exposing yourself to uncommon situations, feelings and new people. Here it’s another strong point of Tulum: its international community that allows you to connect with people from all around the globe and learn about their culture; this also allows you to discover new things about yourself and your human condition.
Anyway, for this and many more reasons, Tulum is a destination that will flood your perception of new aromas, sensations, people and more; to discover new edges of your being that you didn't know you had.
