Sample days

Days I’ve designed.

Three shapes a day can take. None of them will be yours, and that is the point.

Cenote Azul, a shallow open cenote near Playa del Carmen
Water and villages

The one with no crowds

Two cenotes before nine, a kitchen with four tables, and a village where the honey comes from stingless bees. For people who said “nature and food, no bus.”

The Tulum ruins on the cliff above the Caribbean, from the air
Ruins, done properly

Cobá before the buses

Up early, up the road, and inside before the tour groups leave Cancún. Then the cenote nobody photographs, and lunch in a town most people drive through.

Slow

The reset

No alarm. Market, breakfast, a beach that is still quiet at ten, and a temazcal in the afternoon. For the trips that are about not doing very much.

Case studies with real films are coming. The first three filmed days are being shot now. Each one will get its own page here, with the reel, the route and the guests’ own words.

What they have in common

Not much, deliberately.

Every day starts from the same question and ends in the same place: what do you love, and here is your film. Everything between those two points is different every single time.

If you want to see the route before you commit, ask me. I will send you a rough shape for your dates before you pay anything.

Reel goes hereA real day, cut the same night

Tell me what you love.
I’ll build the day.

No forms full of questions you don’t care about. Four quick things, and then I write back myself, usually within a couple of hours.
