A Tulum Teaser

[trip style = sun + beach]

Editor's Note: On Tuesday, I'm announcing something really big. Stay tuned! 

I just got back from Tulum, Mexico's eco-chic getaway hanging at the South end of the Riviera Maya. Think: Jungle-meets-beach with a dash of wellness, a smidgeon of boho and simple hotels that double as Swiss Family Robinson abodes.

While I plan on bundling a trip styled guide to the area—eat, sleep, shop—in the coming weeks, here's a teaser, plus some visual hints why every major travel and fashion magazine are including Tulum in their must-visit hit list.  

Tulum Ruins, about 3km from the hotel zone {entry cost: 59 Pesos which can ONLY be paid in cash}

Because it's always good to end on a beachy note, si?
