Im in Mexico right now and its pretty amazing! We are at the very fancy place called Azul Blue Tulum. Its a gourmet all inclusive. Its pretty small only 98 rooms so there arent a lot of people here. So just right in terms of number of people around and only one well behaved child.

I love Mexico, the ocean here is beautiul and the beach is gorgeous in a very rustic way. The place we are staying is right on the each but its a bit rocky so you have to walk about 5 minutes down to get to a nice sandy area which tottaly deserted. ARRG … its so beautiful, I swam naked as the day I was born in the ocean yesterday and it was really amazing, it was the first time Ive ever done that and surely not the last. Of course the beach was desered and I did have my trunks around my neck but still!!

Tulum reminds me of India in someways, first off the smell, not in a bad way, but there is a wood burning earthiness to the smell that reminds me of Gokulum. And from what Ive seen of the local neighborhoods they also remind me of india. A big difference is that people tend to be on the heavier side as opposed to skinny. But just as kind and welcoming as in India. I keep thinking to myself why anybody would want to leave Mexico and go to the states, Im sure its for financial gain but if they only knew how much better off they are here.

We are going to do a bicycle tour of the Mayan ruins on thursday and today we might rent bikes and ride into  town, I want to check out the side streets and get off the main drag. We asked one of the waiters lastnight what his favorite restaurant was so that we could check out some good local dining. The food at the resort is good but its all upscale fancy stuff, Im wanting some good down home local Mexican food!!

Ive done yoga everyday that we’ve been here so thats good. I am really starting to get back into my serious practice.  It feels very “right”, so strange and majical that it re aligns my whole being in the way that it does. Not to sound to cliche but it does really put me on the center of the path thats ahead of me.

Did I mention that I burnt the hell out of myself on the first day? My upper body is lobster red, stayed pretty much out of the sun yesterday and will be under an umbrella today as well.

So I have two second interviews when I get back to New York one at Bumble and the other at CutlerI Interviewed at each place back to back before I left. The Bumble interview went really well,I think Chloe was impressed with my interview, we tried to get me through my second interview before I left but it didnt work with Connie the VP schedule, so we are going to do it when I return. The Cutler interview went stellar as well, we also  are doing a second interview when I get back. Ben wants me to meet the education director and the owner…I think in both cases they are pretty good signs. Without jinxing myself Im hoping that I go 4 for 4 that would be AWESOME! If not Im still at Prive!!!
