If you know me then you know that I love to travel! I look forward to trips I plan each year with my faithful travel buddies. This year I felt a little more adventurous and strayed from my usual small girls trip to Europe for a huge charted carribean vaction. When my girls initally joked about us dying together I would not have guessed that this trip to Tulum, Mexico would be full of crazy memories I would usually be too scared to partake in. So let me be the first to say PEOPLE GET OUT OF YOUR TRAVEL COMFORT ZONE! I want to thank SocialXcapade for organizing an amazing trip to Tulum full of great events and parties that any young minority professional would enjoy. It was so amazing to be so unapologetically black with a huge group of black and brown men women as we explored Mexico together. So lets talk about all the things I did on this trip that gave me close calls

1. Horseback riding- my horse decided it wanted to fight another horse at the end of the trail and almost threw me off. My horse was not the only horse on a mission to torment the group
2. Zipline upside down- It just didnt happen but I did let a hand go! Maybe next time ill be extra spicy
3. Steal Borrow ATVs- we were just ready to go!
4. Swim in Cenotes- probably the best experience in Mexico but guess what ya’ll I can’t swim! I just didnt let anybody know that as I used all my swimming lesson skills and the life vest to not die as I explored an underwater cave for an hour

My favorite thing about vacation is seeing and trying new things. I’m not big on staying at the resort or hotel because I want to create vivid memories in my life. On top of all the wild adventures I also enjoyed some great parties with some great friends. I think I may even be ready for solo travel soon! Remember life is the greatest love story ever written. -Jaz
