Big Blue comes out of retirement to take us to Baja for our first time south of the border
The great push North is nearly over. Within striking distance of the American border we come upon the Ensenada area, which was going to be our entry into Baja back in January, but now it is our exit. Before making our way all the way into the metro area, we...
The push North continues, making the 200+ mile drive from Mulege to Guerrero Negro, where we over-nighted after a full day or driving. This gave Kerri the perfect excuse to revisit her favorite fish taco joint in Baja, so it was done. A photo posted by Kerri 🌲🌵🌊🇺🇸🇨🇦🇲🇽 (@asolojourner) on...
The time has come for us to start heading North, and I must admit that I am happy about it. Surely, Baja has been great (at least parts of it), but I can only take so much desert-camping and beaches, you know. The call of mountains and trees are strong...
When we arrived at Cabo Pulmo, we arrived freshly showered. Or, at least we got to shower within the past 24 hours of that day, which is pretty freshly showered by our definition. We spent a week in Cabo Pulmo, and now another week in Los Barriles a few dozen...
It has been a while since I did a “cost of” post detailing the finances of living a minimalist and nomadic life. Since we crossed the border deep into the month of January, I held off until February as it is the first full month of Baja spending. Unfortunately, it...
“Wait, did I only shave one armpit?” – Kerri An unknown amount of miles on a dirt road, once again rewards the risk with a gem of a beach and town. The tiny town of Cabo Pulmo rests within a National Preserve – the Cabo Pulmo National Park – about...
To escape the heat of camping in a town, we headed a few miles south of Todos Santos to San Pedrito Beach where we could camp for free and enjoy the ocean breeze. (Location added to my boondocking sites map). This was the style of camping I envisioned when Kerri...
Now that we are in (or near) the tropics, the heat laid it on thick and Kerri’s ability to do anything came to a staggering halt. Eventually she just laying in the van until the sun began to set. Late enough in the day, and once the heat let up...
In a flurry of discussion the decision was made. We would skip La Paz on our Southern route and instead visit it when we head North. I mean, we have to pass through it again no matter what, so why not? This, in turn, freed us up to drive the...
With the weekend comes the time to get out of town and back into the places we came to Baja for. Enter El Conejo, a nothing place (barely even on the map) located 10 miles off the main highway and down a washboard and sandy road. So when Kerri said...
