If there’s one thing I never get tired of while traveling, it’s finding somewhere good to eat. And after spending six weeks in Tulum, I had plenty of opportunities. I’ve visited Tulum several times, but my most recent stay was a little different. Instead of spending a week bouncing between beach clubs and tourist attractions, I rented an apartment in Aldea Zama and worked remotely…

Instead of coming for a few days of beaches, tacos and vacation mode, I booked a two-bedroom apartment in Aldea Zama from mid July through the end of August and stayed for six weeks.
