Welcome to the new Mapchick.com website!

What do we do during low season when we can’t update maps?
I have been having so much fun designing this new site that I am in the office today (Saturday) working on it!

You probably have noticed that this new site is a “blog style” website.
I’m working on getting all of my pages up now.
Packing list is done, just go to Travel tips in the menu above. I’ll be adding more to that section soon.

This new format will allow me to post any news and latest updates as soon as I hear (and confirm) them. Look to the right and click on catergories, I have seperate areas for each location we do maps for.

A big thank you to Perry for helping me get this looking just the way I wanted it! “thank you honey!”
Check out our newly designed cancunmap.com site
There is so much information there for planning a Mexico vacation that it makes my head spin! The improvements are amazing, and it isn’t done yet!
Isla Mujeres fans might like my new retail outlet :)

(this isn’t really my retail store, it’s El Varadero on Isla Mujeres, where they serve the best mojitos in the Yucatan!)

Thanks for coming to my site, bookmark it and check back because I plan to add alot more!
