La Paz – Baja California Sur

After finishing the Sonora Desert Recordings in Hermosillo, I started a little race against my Mexican visa’s expiration date. I had about three weeks to go up to the US border then head south to make it to Guatemala. After visiting San Carlos, I first went to Tijuana...

Heading South – Baja California

Leaving Tijuana On March 5th, 2021, I woke up in Tijuana last time to head further south in Baja California. It was a Black Sea Storm release date of a song called “Ayrıldım Ben,” one of the singles I recorded in Hermosillo with Kacho Olivares before coming to Baja...
Welcome to Tijuana

Welcome to Tijuana

For me, Tijuana was a different type of destination than the places I’ve been visiting on this nomadic journey. I lived 11 and a half years in San Diego from September 1999 to March 2011. San Diego and Tijuana are two adjacent cities separated by a political border...

Going North – Part III

Getting on the Bus to Mexicali On January 6th, 2021, I departed from Hermosillo very early in the morning. The central bus station was nothing like the ones I’ve seen before in Mexico. It felt a bit unfriendly and colorless. It reminded me of the Soviet-era how some...

Going North – Part II

Culiacan, Sinaloa I arrived in Culiacan in the late afternoon. After leaving my belongings at the rental apartment, I rushed outside to take the maximum amount of photos while the sun was still up. Culiacan is not a pedestrian-friendly city. I was able to walk up to...

Going North – Part I

Root Canal in Paradise I ended up staying three weeks in Puerto Vallarta. I was having an issue with a tooth falling apart for the last two years or so. I would get temporary crowns to manage it with the most affordable solution, but the temporary crowns kept breaking...
