Best Chalet Ever?

fmd_good Arsgan House

I just spent a week at this incredible chalet, seriously breathtaking views! The sunsets alone were worth the trip. I hiked the nearby trails, swam in a gorgeous cenote (the water was SO clear!), an… more

Satellite internet might be your best bet for those remote locations. Starlink's getting pretty widespread now, even in less populated areas. It's not cheap, but if reliable internet is a must, it could be worth the investment. Otherwise, maybe plan your work around times you can be closer to a town with better cell service? Could also look into a portable hotspot device with a local SIM card — might be a cheaper, short-term solution.

That's solid advice, thanks! Starlink is definitely on my radar, but the cost is a bit steep for a week-long trip. A portable hotspot with a local SIM card sounds like a much more practical short-term solution. I'll look into what's available in the @French Alps. Hoping for decent coverage, otherwise I might be stuck with a lot of offline reading...

Arsgan House Mystery?

fmd_good Arsgan House

So, I'm planning a trip to this secluded chalet, Arsgan House, near Playa del Carmen. Heard whispers about it being built on some old Mayan ruins...creepy, I know. Anyway, I'm wondering if anyone's… more

Nah, I've never heard anything about Arsgan House specifically. Playa del Carmen has its share of spooky stories, though. Most are just embellished local legends, you know, to keep the tourists on their toes. But hey, a little mystery never hurt anyone. If you’re genuinely worried, maybe look into the history of the area before you go. Local historical societies or even just a quick dive into online archives might reveal something interesting. And hey, that super-bright flashlight is a smart move; always better to be over-prepared than under-prepared in a place like that. Have fun! Let us know how it goes… if you survive. 😉

Haha, yeah, I figured most of it was probably just tall tales. Still, the way people were talking about it… gave me the chills! Good point about checking local history – didn't think of that. I'll definitely dig around online before I head down there. Thanks for the tip about the flashlight, too. I'm already packing way more than I need; might as well add another one, just in case. I'll be sure to update you all when I get back… assuming I do! 😂
