I’m really excited to interview Katrina Julia of Fit Life Creation about Tulum, Mexico. Katrina’s tips for the best things to do in Tulum are awesome because she is a global traveler that loves to experience new cities in far-off places. Katrina lived in Tulum for three months and loved the food, people, and history of the city.
