Camping on the Beach is UnBelizeable!
What should have been a visit to the Basil Jones Summer Camp to catch up on the activities of the camp kids, turned out to be a full 2-day adventure that included a golf cart ride in pitch black conditions, being eaten alive by sand flies, camping on the beach and drying out wet mattresses, […]
When the Power Goes Out in Belize
Power Outages – Yes they are common occurrences in Belize. Hey! We are still considered living in a third world country and from time to time, the power goes out; sometimes for a few minutes and at times for some stressful hours. They come unannounced and sometimes they are scheduled when the power company has […]
How to Unplug and Unwind in Belize
In a time when it is so hard to detach from your mobile devices, finding activities that allow you some true experiences without having to instantly connect and post something on Snapchat, Facebook and Instagram are difficult to come by. I am guilty of burying my head into my smart phone and detaching myself from […]
My Traveling Feet Dig into White Sands at Mahahual
It’s an up and coming touristic village along the Costa Maya of Mexico (southern end of the Yucatan Peninsula) and it’s very close to Belize. In fact, more and more locals from Ambergris Caye make frequent trips to Mahahual than the big city of Chetumal. Mahahual is yet another neighboring destination where Belizeans can go […]
My Traveling Feet ‘Jump Up’ in City Carnival Parade
I could not believe that I had never traveled to experience the Belize City Carnival Parade that takes place during the country’s September Celebrations.

Golf in Belize Goes Pro
I might have swung a gulf club once or twice in the past and attempted to compete a miniature golf back in my college days, but all the time I had no clue what I was doing. LOL! Two weeks ago My Traveling Feet found themselves commuting to the private resort island of Caye Chapel […]
Why Belize Loves The Chicago Cubs So Much
It is said (or believed) that Belize has more Cubs fans per capita than any place outside greater Chicago. There just might be some truth to that, but even if some Belizeans have lost their faith in the baseball team, the CUBBIES still remain in the hearts of all Belizeans. Hey! The Chicago Cubs are […]
Do Cilanto and a Margarita Go Well Together?
I think that by now everybody who knows and follows me on social media is cognizant of the fact that I hate Cilantro – I don’t like it; I can’t acquire the taste; I even dislike the smell of it. I don’t like cilantro! But the herb is hard to avoid in a country that […]
3D Movie Experience in Belize City
The red carpet rolled out, caviar and octopus hors d’oeuvres were served and even champagne bottles were popped – NOPE! I was not meeting the US President or at a Hollywood social; I was at the movies!!! My Traveling Feet and iTravel Belize had the exclusive invitation to cover the very first screening of a […]
