Valle Part 2 – Las Hijas de la Tiznada and La Cocina de Doña Esthela

Valle Part 2: First of all, I forgot to give special thanks to Joe Moon for taking me to Valle in the first place. Otherwise, I would have never gone. You see, my brother forgot to tell me that his friends had arrived and that they were going to Valle already… he told me when…

There’s more than just XXX! New tours coming soon!
I haven’t posted on the Tijuana Adventure blog in forever that it seems like I am not even giving tours anymore… Quite the opposite. Since the last post, I have had more than 10 tours. Many involving Zona Norte (XXX tours), in fact, many of the emails I receive are inquiring about that though I deleted…

It wouldn’t be an adventure if I knew where I was going… VEGGIE TOUR
Of course I know where I am going… but Tijuana has changed so much in so little. Seriously… just at the start of 2015, new breweries and restaurants opened up, that my tours sometimes end up in places brand new even for me! This time, fellow SDreader writer, Vanessa Horne, emailed me for a tour…

Independence Day in TJ: Fifth wheeling an adventure during America’s birthday
“It might be a little odd, but my girlfriend and I are coming down to TJ on July 4th, maybe with a couple of friends.” I received an email from a client that saw a post of mine on Reddit asking for a tour. This was right after dealing with another TJ Adventure that will…

Saving Private French Guy
I was playing guitar in my favorite café which is hidden in the depths of some apartment building in Tijuana, when a random guy that looked like Luigi (from the videogames) walked in asking for work. His name was Alex and he was clearly not from the area. After a brief chat I learned that…

AMF and November Brings No Adventures
That is no foreign adventures. Because your Tijuana Adventure host has been having a blast in the city by himself. It might be the cold, it might be that the end of the year is approaching, but no one has contacted me for an adventure in November. Despite putting flyers all over North and South…

Adventure gets canceled, November slows down tours, but I’m now a published Freelance Writer
November slowed down Tijuana Adventures. The sunset happens way earlier on winter time, that by 6 pm it’s already night time. I had an Adventure ready for the weekend for a friend and his wife that were coming all the way from LA for their wedding anniversary. It was going to be a tour of…

Sorry mom, but XXX sales…
I must admit it, the idea of Tijuana Adventure is to show you the art, music, locals, etc. What I called the real Tijuana. But obviously, sex sales. My family told me I shouldn’t be doing it, but the main interest for many travelers is Tijuana’s Zona Norte (Red Light District). I had my first…
