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.
I want to travel from Bacalar in Mexico to Corozal in Belize. There are about 50 kilometers in between, but getting there is quite an undertaking. The information on how to travel best is confusing, to say the least.
