A somewhat self-respecting Dutchie has been to Keukenhof at least once in their life. Right? But is it worth the trouble of heavy traffic jams?
Only a few tourists have found their way to northern Belize. If you want to travel off the beaten track, you’re in the right place. I end up in the sleepy fishing village of Sarteneja and get to know it through the stories of the inhabitants.
I have trouble characterizing Orange Walk in Belize. There is no one word or phrase to describe the city’s character. It’s a place where things that don’t belong together come together. Traditional Mennonites, a marijuana penchant, and a rich Mayan past all have a home in this dry, dusty city.
When I tell the hotel manager in Bacalar (Mexico) that Corozal (Belize) is my next stop, she looks at me questioningly. What on earth am I going to do there? This a question I ask myself a few more times in Corozal Town, where I mainly meet pensioners and potentially ‘bad’ people.
