Welcome to this exciting episode of the Recycled Show! I'm Dave, and I'm joined by Gwen, as we recount our incredible road trip adventure, travelling all the way from Edmonton, Canada to Tulum, Mexico. This whirlwind journey takes us through the heart of North America, exploring diverse landscapes, vibrant cities, and meeting interesting locals along the way.

Kicking off in Edmonton, we make our way south through the quiet, snow-covered landscapes of Saskatchewan before crossing the border into the United States. Our American leg of the journey includes stops in North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas, with highlights like San Antonio's rich history and lively arts scene, as well as an impromptu meetup with an old friend.

As we cross into Mexico at the Columbia border, we immerse ourselves in the beauty and culture of this fascinating country. We share stories of Monterrey's industrial strength, the charm of San Miguel de Allende's colonial streets, and our unforgettable experiences in Coatzacoalcos and Campeche. The road trip culminates in the bohemian paradise of Tulum, where turquoise waters and white sand beaches provide the perfect backdrop for relaxation and exploration.

In our playful and honest conversation, we discuss the highs and lows of our journey, offering insights and advice for those planning similar road trips. We also reflect on what we might have done differently and the places we wish we had more time to visit.
