Unboxing iPhone 18 pro max

Now I feel it is totally worth it. Has helped in reducing my travel Photography kit from DSLR cameras + lenses to one phone !

It is such a photographer + Content creator’s phone! 🤯

Are you thinking of making this switch?

Booking Tulum? Read this first 👀

➡️ Our Mexican friend stopped us, and sent us to Valladolid instead.
➡️ Same jungle-pool vibe, real Yucatecan food, cenotes 10 minutes away, and none of the crazy Tulum prices 💸💸💸

📍 Colonté Hotel Origen, Valladolid

Save this for your Mexico trip and send it to the friend still paying Tulum prices 😉

How to see Chichén Itzá without the crowds

➡️ I stayed in Valladolid the night before and was at the gate for the 10am.
⏰ Open daily 8am–5pm, last entry 4pm

🎟 One ticket since March 2026: 697 MXN for foreign visitors (about £28 )

🚨 Don’t have to book in advance or from the numerous people who try to stop you! You can buy tickets at the entrance gate!

🚌 Tour buses from Cancún start arriving around 10–11am, so the first two hours are the quiet ones

☀️ There’s almost no shade, so go early before the midday heat
