Jenn Explores Passionate photographer, storyteller and explorer Hi! I'm Jenn, and I'm a passionate photographer, storyteller and content creator from Alberta, Canada.

I am lucky to call the Rocky Mountains my big, beautiful backyard! When I spend time in nature, time stops. Worries are silenced and problems are dwarfed by the immense height, depth and scale of the earth. I'm constantly stunned by the perfection of every intricate detail. A photograph has the power to transport you to a different time and place, to inspire your curiosity, to spark the flame of a

dventure and travel. This is why I take pictures - to invite you into nature, into the freedom it brings, into a whole new view of our wonderful world. Come and discover the grandeur and beauty that is all around us. Do you have a story you'd like to tell? Images you need produced to show your brand in just the right light? Let's work together!

It’s true that has a beautiful coastline, but those seaside towns can get really crowded in the summer season!

Veteran Oregon tourists and locals have a well-kept secret — that you should head ✨ INLAND ✨ if you want to spend the warm months chilling out in Oregon at a gorgeous lakeside getaway!

These are my choices for the cutest cabins you can rent located on Oregon lakes for the lakeside getaway of your dreams. 🏠

𝘈𝘩𝘩𝘩, Valladolid, the Mexican town of cheerfully-colourful streets, and a popular launching-off point for adventurers hoping to explore the Yucatan’s many, many mysterious crystal-clear cenote swimming holes!

Despite the fact that millions of tourists simply whiz by Valladolid on their way to visit the popular Chichen Itza ruins, Valladolid is still a lovely hidden gem off the beaten path with so much to see and do.

Sadly, our time in Valladolid (which was of course supposed to include lots of cenote-hunting) was cut short, as we tested Covid-positive during our visit here. We decided to leave, opting to isolate in a private villa in a sleepy little coastal beach town until we tested negative (don’t worry, we were absolutely fine - I didn’t even know I was sick until I lost my sense of taste for awhile, and we’ve long since recovered).

Anyways, what we 𝙙𝙞𝙙 see of Valladolid we absolutely loved, so it remains perched upon our Yucatan bucket list, and we’ll be back very soon 🤗

“Pueblo Magicos”✨ - - Did you know that Mexico has a special “Magic Town” designation assigned to 132 of its towns?!

These towns have charm around every corner and are teeming with history that often have been the scene of transcendent events for the country.

These are places that proudly display their national identity, with magic and beauty emanating from so many of their features and attractions.

I can’t wait to share as many “Pueblo Magicos” with you as possible throughout our time here in Mexico ❤️ This is a pretty corner in the back garden courtyard of a restaurant in the Pueblo Magico of Izamal, Yucatan.

From our month-long Mexico road trip, you guys went crazy for one destination in particular… 🚗

𝐁𝐀𝐂𝐀𝐋𝐀𝐑 𝐋𝐀𝐆𝐎𝐎𝐍!!! 💦 ✨

This incredible town in Mexico is off the beaten path, which still makes it somewhat of a hidden gem. 💎

Bacalar is known as the “Maldives of Mexico”, and there’s no confusion why - just look at the turquoise water of that lagoon! 😍 You’d think you were looking at the Caribbean Sea, not a lake 🤯

In fact, you can often see up to SEVEN incredible shades of blue in the lagoon, due to varying depths.

When many people think of Mexico, they think of sprawling, opulent all-inclusive resorts teeming with all-you-can-eat buffets and hundreds of guests. Those are indeed readily available in many touristy locations such as Cancun, Puerto Vallarta or Los Cabos. However, when you explore further off the beaten path, you can find a never-ending supply of charming, unique and serene smaller boutique hotels all around Mexico that specialize in truly personalized service. This is one of our favourite so far, .bacalar located in the beautiful hidden gem town of Bacalar, near the Mexico / Belize border.

What do you prefer - large all-inclusive resorts, or smaller boutique hotels?

One of my absolute favourite things about living in Mexico, is experiencing the never-ending rainbow palette in each and every new town that we visit. You can’t help but smile 😊 🌈

✨ Campeche: ✨ this beautiful Yucatan Peninsula colonial city (also a UNESCO World Heritage site!) is something straight out of a fairy tale. The pastel-coloured city is teeming with charming sidewalk cafes and restaurants, beautiful old hacienda-style mansions, and old-world forts (like this one!) that hold secrets to the city’s pirate-oppressed past. 🏴‍☠️ Any guesses as to why the entrance is shaped this way? 🤔

One of our absolute favourite spots on our Mexico road trip thusfar has been Bacalar Laguna, a long narrow lake in Quintana Roo State near the Belize border, about 5 hours from Cancun. It’s still a bit of a “hidden gem” and you’re going to want to add it to your growing bucket list ASAP. The lagoon’s crystal-clear waters have earned its nickname as the “Maldives of Mexico”! I’ll be blogging all about Bacalar soon, so stay turned 💙 Can you spot the little fishies? 🐠
