Mostly Maya is dedicated to understanding the culture and archaeology of the Maya.  In it I also work on finding ways to help make budget travel in the Maya areas in Mesoamerica simpler, better and less harmful to the environment.  I look for links and other  information that will be relevant to planning an inexpensive trip via the Internet, though this is best done using the additional advice of a good guide book, such as Rough Guide or Lonely Planet. I also look for better ways to get to some of the more difficult locations by  actually going to them and trying to see what works best. It especially pleases me when I am ahead of the guidebooks, but sometimes that seems too easy. The site is a hobby and it takes no ads; I won't even answer such a request. This is my excuse to my wife for traveling in Maya areas annually.  I note mostly local sources, with a preference for inexpensive  hotels, local tours and other local services that look useful to low budget travelers. I can't be everywhere, so I welcome outside information.  I find it better to deal directly with locally owned agencies and businesses where possible, because they are more likely to keep both income and profits within the local economies. I also plug places or services that I like while traveling in Maya areas.  You will also find pages or info that I add for commercial and non-commercial places that are worthwhile, but  which have no website.  

Had to change web hosts. Check out my al fin y al cabo January trip report to El Mirador.
