Look at this photo. Just look at it. I don't know about you, but I am finding it difficult to drag my eyes away. There are few things that please me more than a beach bar, and this one looks - well, just perfect. The windswept coconut palms, the pristine white sand, the vivid turquoise sea, the artfully mismatched cushions and quirky vintage lamps... I can practically taste the icy, sour-salt Margaritas, practically feel the heat on my sun-baked shoulders, practically hear the incessantly chirping cicadas. Have I missed out any senses? Ooh - smell the coconut Ambre Solaire (we've gone back in time to 1977 now).
Escaping suicide Feb in the UK has become a very welcome marital tradition over the last few years, and after a long run in Goa, this year hubby and I have decided to swap fish curries for tacos. Hence, and at the advice of my very cool, globe-trotting brother (who would like me to make it clear, once and for all, that he is not the inspiration behind any of the characters in my books) - Tulum, on the Yucatan peninsula.
The Papaya Playa Project, where we'll be staying, is all eco, boho, possibly a little pretentious - and I simply cannot wait!
More on hammock-lounging, cycling to Mayan ruins and snorkelling around coral reefs once we're there.
Arriba, la Cucaracha, and TEQUILA!
