Mexico/Expert Profile

Expertise

I can provide current information on hotels, beach houses, surfing spots, golfing, transportation and restaurants in Northern Baja, Mexico. I can provide Internet links to Northern and Southern Baja lodging.

Experience in the area

Baja California questions, please. I have travelled the Baja for 38 years. I have driven the length of Baja more than once and know the cities of Rosarito Beach, Ensenada, Guerrero Negro, San Ignatio, Santa Rosalia, Mulege, Loreto and La Paz. I have not spent much time in San Felipe.

What do you like about this subject?

There is an expanding use of the Internet in Baja and many of my contacts and ability to discover new information comes from those links.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?

I am always interested in learning more about the small entreprenuerial enterprises in the rural areas of Baja. They represent a wonderful business attitude that has been lost in the U.S.

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:

The country of Mexico has many states. Baja California is actually two states, Norte and Sur (north and south). Overall, Baja California is huge and diverse. It is often misunderstood and often is the victim of American ignorant exaggeration and rumor.

Something controversial or provocative about this subject

The tourist trade exploitation of the cities of Ensenada and Cabo San Lucas make them undesirable destinations in my opinion. Fine to visit, but don't make them your home.
