How I did it: I took a chance to go out to Chichen Itza where the tour stopped at a cenote, one of the most beautiful places I've even been in my life. There was a diving platform/cliff carved into the side of the limestone (it was an ancient Mayan ritual place where royals bathed) and looked as high up as it was! It was a little intimidating doing it alone (I was by myself) but absolutely exhilarating. Read how I did it…
