Four Year Nomadiversary

Our 4 year Nomadiversary is significant because it marks the end of full time travel for us, but certainly not the end of travel. Click below to watch 4 years of our travel highlights: Our boys were 8 and 6 years old when we left […]

The End of Our Mexico Adventure: Cancun

The End of Our Mexico Adventure: Cancun

We left Merida, and took the ADO Bus to the city center of Cancun, about a 4 and a half hour journey.  It was pouring rain when we arrived, and my husband, now well practiced at negotiation, bargained a taxi ride to our hotel.  Although […]

Connecting with Family & Friends in Merida

Spending time in the capital city of the Yucatan, Merida, was not even on our radar, until our traveling friends brought our attention to a Worldschooling Gathering taking place there in April.  We were very excited about the opportunity to spend time with our friends […]

The Mayan Ruins of Ek’Balam, Mexico
BeyondUSA~Ek Balam~Mexico~Valladolid

The Mayan Ruins of Ek’Balam, Mexico

We used the charming city of Valladolid as a base when visiting the ruins of Ek’Balam.  The ruins site was only about a half hour drive away from the city center. There didn’t seem to be an easy way to catch a Collectivo, so we […]

Stepping Back in Time: Valladolid, Mexico

After spending a week and a half on the gorgeous Riviera Maya, it was time for us to head inland. We set out for the charming city of Valladolid, located in the central Yucatan peninsula.  As we stepped out to Valladolid’s ADO bus station, the […]

Tulum Boat Ride and Snorkeling

Tulum Boat Ride and Snorkeling

After we left the beautiful Tulum Ruins and cooled off a bit, we walked toward Playa Pescadores. Our next stop was our Tulum snorkeling boat ride. The kids entertained themselves and many passers-by on our walk, as they belted out more songs from Moana. The beach was […]

Tulum Ruins, Mexico
BeyondUSA~Mexico~Tulum

Tulum Ruins, Mexico

When we woke up the morning after our day at the beach in Xpu-Ha, we were unsure about attempting another full day outing to see Tulum in the hot sun.  We decided we’d just do a quick trip there and back, skipping the beach due to […]

Reunion in Playa Del Carmen and Xpu-Ha, Mexico

A few days after arriving in Playa Del Carmen, we had a reunion with friends that we had met in San Diego at an RV Rally.  Their family joined us for a long weekend in Playa Del Carmen, before we would reunite again in Merida the following […]

Planes, Trains, and Automobiles: Yucatan, Mexico
BeyondUSA~Los Angeles~Mexico~Playa Del Carmen~San Diego

Planes, Trains, and Automobiles: Yucatan, Mexico

Planes, Trains, and Automobiles were all necessary to get us to Mexico.  Once we arrived it became more like Rickshaws, Colectivos, and Motocars.  But I’ll get into that a little later… After spending our life savings on airport food, we stocked up for our almost 5 hour flight from LAX to […]

Day Trip to Baja California, Mexico

While staying in San Diego, we met up with cousins that live just south of San Diego. A few of their family members also lived across the border in Mexico. Together, we decided to take a day trip into Baja California, including Tijuana and Rosarito, […]

About Travel 50 States

My parents instilled a love of travel within me since my childhood, when they took my sisters and I on some memorable trips around the United States, exposing us to historical sites and vast landscapes.

My dad has visited nearly all 50 states, but my mother has visited EVERY one of the 50 states, a grand accomplishment, and a tradition that I will strive to live on with my own family.

This blog is a way for me to chronicle my travels, as well as share my experiences with others.  My hope is that I can be a resource for your own journey, whether it helps you to learn about places you plan to travel, allows you to reminisce about a similar journey you’ve taken, or simply brings you along for the ride.
