Hey y'all! We're Chris + Sara (or as you know us, Let’s Be Us), a husband and wife digital nomad travel duo currently working and traveling full time with our pup, Kramer. We've always dreamed of traveling full time, and in May of 2018 we took the leap and made it happen! Today we're balancing work and fun everywhere between the Pacific and Atlantic. From hiking and cycling to tacos and coffee, we're trying to see and experience as much of this world as we can! While our home is currently on wheels in our DIY Sprinter van, our travels take us all around the world.

Any place that always dog is a huge plus in my books!
Us too!
We did a tour with the same tour group but in a pontoon boat. Great guide! Bacalar is stunningly gorgeous the water is so refreshing, it was excellente!
This is my kind of travel. Give me a peaceful spot to enjoy the sounds of nature.
Bacalar is incredible. Highly recommend a visit here! This town single handedly made us fall in love with the Yucatán.
Reminds me a bit of the times I've been in French Polynesia with water that blue! Stunning!
Magical town is perfect; definitely made me want to visit!
Y'all would love it! Such a fun town!
Bacalar, often referred to as the "Lagoon of Seven Colors," is a hidden gem in Mexico's Quintana Roo state. Known for its stunning, crystal-clear waters in varying shades of blue and turquoise, Bacalar offers a tranquil and idyllic escape. The town's charming streets are lined with colorful buildings, and the historic San Felipe Fort provides a glimpse into its colonial past. It's a paradise for nature enthusiasts, with opportunities for kayaking, snorkeling, and exploring the cenotes and cenote Azul. Bacalar's serene beauty and relaxed atmosphere make it a perfect destination for those seeking a more peaceful alternative to the bustling tourist hubs on the nearby Riviera Maya. Thanks, Chris and Sara!
Bacalar looks like our kinda place! Stunning drone shots too! Kramer was like a toddler needing his mom & dad….so cute. Great video guys! ~Cara 😊
Thanks so much, y'all! I wish we could take credit for those drone shots, but this time those aren't ours. We aren't legally allowed to fly it in Mexico so we had to snag these shots for a stock website. :/
This is where your next group trip should be! Looks amazing!
What a beautiful place. And the water…wow! The silence is wonderful. Please thank Kramer for the comic relief. He’s so funny. Thank you.
I was trying to decide on a video to watch. I had never seen your channel before. Dog being in the title sealed the deal. Subscribed! Great video!
LOL. He's the true star of the show. Thanks for subbing Melissa!
Let's go back here someday together!!
Let's goooo
Thanks for taking us to Bacalar with you! ☺️ We’re really excited to visit this area! Kramer did a great job swimming 🙌 We really enjoy exploring the Pueblo Mágicos. We’ve hit quite a few of them on our trip. Did you end up seeing any crocs? 🐊
Y'all are going to LOVE it! We kept saying how perfect Bacalar would be in a van!! And no, we never saw any crocs. :) We've heard they're not often seen, but still be careful. We never swam in deep water or near the shores where there were lots of plants that crowded the visibility. :)
The true Yucatán paradise!
Looks great. Almost unreal how blue those waters are! The tour you took: what was the name of the company?
Crazy how this is in Mexico! The water is so blue, especially for being fresh water and not salt water. Not sure whether Kramer or Chris’s shirt was the best part of the video! 😂
It's my shirt hands down.
Beautiful place, great video!
Thank you!
WOW, BeAuTiFuL :)
How long in Bacalar is enough for a vacation? 3-4 days 6-7?
Great editing, great content too.
Thank you so much 🤗 Glad you enjoyed it!
Looks incredible there!
Y'all would love it! Well, maybe no Alix.... it's pretty humid. 😂
I am here for doggos
Always! He's the star of the show.
Kramer is like what are you doing to me humans!
Which tour was this with?
Thanks for the video. What was the name of the boat tour you took?
Oh wow, that's GORGEOUS! How did y'all find out about it?
BTW, hi neighbor! I'm a Dalton native and still live there.
Hi neighbor! :)
We found out about Bacalar from some friends who recently visited. Highly recommend!
I highly recommend rash guards.
Chris are you reading this comment
I've bought 2 pairs since this trip lol
Hi! Do you have any hotel recommendations near town center? Going there end of July. I like your videos.
Hi there! We stayed at Hotel Circulo Bacalar and had a great experience. We got the room for just under $100/night which is high for Mexico, but not that high for Bacalar. It was a dog friendly hotel (which we needed) and was one of the less expensive hotels that had AC in the rooms which was really nice. The rate also included breakfast. Here's the Google link to the hotel: goo.gl/maps/Z2vxhCuNQYwHeWUw9
It is a small hotel so you'll probably need to book in advance. Hope this helps and have fun! Bacalar is amazing. :)
What airline did you use to fly with your dog ?
We flew Delta!
Is hiring a tour the only way to get out into the water?
10/10 for the Pink Panther Shirt. -1/10 paired with the shorts
Did you guys switch up the picture profile or get a new camera? The video looks super vintage. It’s kinda cool tbh
We’ve been playing with a ton of different picture profiles and coloring. Still trying to get the hang of it!
Sun shirts are totally acceptable, Invest in some
We plan to! We generally avoid the sun in the middle of the day and we couldn't find any available in Bacalar. 😅
Nobody like to calle It that way... 😒 Bacalar is ubique with mayan cenotes, a bohemia pueblo mágico, history with pirates, It has a fuerte! And the lagoon of Seven colores... Dont calle It the Maldivas... Bacalar is bacalar
