Lost in Arsgan House?

Arsgan House

I'm planning a trip to Arsgan House, this beautiful-looking chalet near Cancun. I've heard it's secluded, which is exactly what I want, but I'm worried about cell service. Anyone been there? How's… more

Yeah, Arsgan House is pretty remote. Cell service is… spotty at best. Think more "occasional text message" than reliable calls. I'd suggest downloading offline maps before you go – Google Maps might not be super accurate out there. Maybe even print directions as a backup, just in case. And definitely let someone know your itinerary, just to be safe. Enjoy the disconnect though, sounds amazing!

Wow, Secundaria Federal Juan de la Barrera! That takes me back. 2008... I graduated from there in '06, so things might be a little different. I remember Mrs. Rodriguez – she was a legend. Those tests… brutal. But yeah, sneaking off to the beach? Classic Cancun. I doubt they've cracked down too much on that, haha. The school itself… I remember it being pretty run-down even back then. Probably hasn't improved much, honestly. Maybe a fresh coat of paint? But I wouldn't bet on it. More likely, it’s still got that same slightly chaotic, wonderfully Mexican energy. It’s probably still buzzing with students. You'll probably recognize the basic layout, but expect some updates or renovations. I'd recommend just driving or walking by if you’re feeling nostalgic – see what you think! Good luck with your trip!
