Yucatán - Day 01 - Isla Cozumel

After 5 hrs flight, an hour bus ride, 45min ferry ride, and lots of wait time, I'm finally here at my hostel in Cozumel. I'm pleasantly surprised that I'm the only guest here, and I get to have the big room! I had problem with my bank card and the host provided me free long distance call to rectify the problem! I'm soooo lucky I brought some cold cash with me!

My bus ride to the ferry turned out to be a share taxi ride, paid more than double 'cause I can't find the bus station, and I was too tired so I got tricked to take the taxi, but still pretty good for taxi. Amazingly turned out the other passenger is a native from Hastings, who used to do all kinds of drugs but came clean. Now he's doing the bucket list, and helping people to come off drugs too! This is really an amazing experience, even though my mind is too tired to grip the whole meaning of this special encounter.

Now I'm super tired. I'm stuck between going diving tomorrow with my host or sleep all day. Such a nice hostel here, especially I get to be the only one!
