Once again we hear of a wonderful place in Mexico through our friends at Yucatan Living. Many thanks to the Working Gringos for everything they do to communicate their passion for Mexico and to share their advise, skills and expertise! In Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula, one of our very favorite cities is Merida. We were so moved by how kind and friendly people in Merida are, by the beauty of the markets, the stunning colonial homes around the Centro, the hustle and bustle amidst an attitude of grace ... and the dynamism of this rapidly growing city. The colonial homes in Merida are hugely inspiring for us, they are such absolutely perfect backdrops in which to feature our Hacienda furniture! There are many wonderful places around Merida, we hear fabulous things about Izamal and have also read lots about the super hip happenings in Valladolid. Here we want to call your attention to Lake Bacalar, sounds like a fun, pristine and totally lovely place a few hours from Merida. We hope you enjoy Yucatan Living's featured article.
