One week living in my van in Baja, Mexico! 🇲🇽 🚐 Here are my recommendations for each spot: 🍷 Guadalupe Valley • LA Cetto Winery (you can camp here too! Just need to make a purchase) • Ojá Valle - really tasty drinks and food! Nico and I loved the tuna tostada and ceviche • Taqueria la Principal - for when you just want some delicious tacos for a reasonable price 🌊 San Felipe • Free camping just north of town (check on iOverlander) • I didn’t do much here because it was windy but I heard there are hot springs nearby! 🐋 Guerrero Negro • Take a whale watching tour! This was a highlight for me • Camp for free near the dunes • Get fish tacos from Tacos El Muelle 🌴 San Ignacio • Camp under the palms at Kadakaamanga Campground • Explore the oasis by kayak

This is what it was like crossing the border in Tecate: The border patrol agents asked us to pull over and show them our registration. One guy asked Nico to open the back doors while another guy came in through the side door to look around. He opened the cabinets and asked us where we were coming from and where we are going. Then they said we were good to go. I asked where to go for the FMM card and didn’t quite catch everything he said, but basically, at Tecate, you’ll turn right on Avenida Revolución, then take the next right, and the next right (essentially going around the block back to the border patrol area but you’ll need to make this loop because there’s a one-way street)…

I’m bringing my house to Mexico! Here’s a list of everything I was sure to have for the journey: • Air compressor • Recovery boards (a shovel is also smart) • Jumper cables • Tire plug kit • Copies of passports and IDs • Mexican car insurance • Pesos Before crossing the border, we also: • Installed New shocks • Flat-mounted Starlink • Stocked up on groceries (no produce!) Let me know if you have any questions about how I prepared for Baja! #baja #bajacalifornia #vanlifebaja #bajavanlife #bajamexico #mexicoroadtrip #bajaroadtrip #vanlifemovement #vanlifeisawesome #livingvanlife #vanlifebuilds #vanlifelocation #homeonwheels #vanlifevirals #selfbuild
