In the beginning of March, I went on an epic trip to Chiapas, Mexico!! After a couple weeks of editing the crew pulled off a fantastic edit! – Beyond the Drop.

This trip to Mexico was amazing!! Mexico is incredible – The culture is great, the people are friendly and the rivers and surroundings are stunning!!

A 30 plus hours flight brought me in Chiapas, were I teamed up with the Teva crew and started the 7 days journey in Mexico! After an epic six hours drive we found ourselves in Aqua Azur, a cute little village at the foot of the beautiful Rio Aqua Azur! Paradise!

We had a super solid crew of boaters with Rush Sturges, Evan Garcia, Aniol & Gerd Serrasolses, Casper van Kalmthout and our local guide Rafa Ortiz rounded up with a sick media crew and Mexican driver! It has been an interesting experience being the only chick on the crew and surrounded by 13 men. Full on, but super much fun ;)

The Azur River has 5 main drops followed shortly after each other, with the highest being a 50fter. The color and temperature of the water, makes you love kayaking at every stroke. After the run you can look back upstream from a viewing platform, which gives you the most amazing view of the river!

Off the river, the historical Maya ruins showed the level of civilization evident in the region thousand years ago, providing entertainment plus some cultural education about the live and history in Mexico.

It was great being on an other adventure living better stories!
