Oooeee.
I’m tired like a forty year old man. I had two tours in a row. They were both great clients like always. Yesterday’s tour was a couple from Riverside that are into Real Estate. We walked a lot. It was great, I love walking this city even though it’s not the most beautiful place to walk around, it’s always weird and interesting.
Weird shit happens.
The other tour was a lovely white family that likes craft beer. They drove their truck down. I co-piloted for a while showing how easy it can be to drive in Tijuana. It’s crazier than other places but definitely easy compared to CDMX or other LatinAmerican cities.
Weird shit happens.
We were at Oxxo because my client wanted to try a Mexican Coca Cola when suddenly an old man grabbed me by the arm and in English started saying “coke please, coke!”
He was no beggar. He had the change to pay for it in his hand. He suddenly bent over and went on the floor in a delirious stage. Probably diabetic and needed the sugar. No one did shit. The old man grabbed me. I told the Oxxo ladies that they should call an ambulance. They just stared at me dumbfounded. My client was like WTF is going on? I was like WTF is going on?!
There were cops outside. There are always cops in that area. I alerted them. “Hey! Some dude just passed out in the store, I think we need an ambulance.”
They didn’t seem to care when I first told them, like I was saying something weird…
And… then they jumped into action and they helped the old man.
And the tour carried on. To one of my favorite seafood spots. And get this… They have a kid’s menu! Now I know. I rarely do family tours but I am starting to like them. I’m not that terrible with children.
I’m getting old.
I’ve been drinking less. I drank a lot yesterday… but since my birthday, I had more sober nights in years. And I still feel old and tired all the time.
I drank less perhaps because I was sick. We were sick. I still feel a little itch on my throat. My girlfriend wants me to clarify that she doesn’t love the doctor or medicine or getting injected. She in fact, hates it. But she does it because she is the responsible one. That’s what I meant. She’s the responsible one.
And drinking less is the responsible thing to do. YOU SAVE SO MUCH MONEY!
I’ve been saying that I’m going to go to Ensenada. And perhaps this weekend it will finally happen. And I’ll drive there. Weird. Let’s see how that goes.
Let’s see where we’ll stay. We have choices. And I need content. And I also need a good weekend away from Tijuana with the girlfriend. We haven’t traveled together in a while.
Hey Spotify! Thanks!
New band unlocked: Nuito. Yes. Math rock band that goes tappitty tap wheeeee tappity tap boopee boop bop bee!
I’ve also been listening to a lot Descartes A Kant. They are more basic. But whoa shit. I didn’t know they were Mexican. And that they’ve been around for a long time now. No wonder why their newest video is so smoothly polished.
And now back to Floral that I’ve been listening to for years.
That’s been the Matingas music minute.
May went great. I made money from tours. I still have another tour tomorrow. Everyone is paying me nice and on time and with a tip. Everyone is also interested in my shirts and more of my merch. I need to make that grow. I need to have this blog give me more money. And my social media selling more merch.
My brother owes me 25 shirts. And I already owe some of those shirts to people that paid for it. I’ll send them soon, I promise.
And I also finally got paid through WordPress through this blog!!!!

Turns out that the donations above go through Stripe and they take a nice commission. Like a chunky 9%.
I got donated $66.66 which is TASTYYYYY for my first donation. Yeah. Not because I need that money, just becase… you know harhar 6666.
And Stripe took a chunk of that. And it’s supposed to go directly to my bank account and it hasn’t. So… Venmo/Zelle are better.
I got a tour tomorrow. More money.
More money.
I did a last minute random photoshoot with a trans XVera named Kim. I bought Luminar Neo to edit the 500+ pictures. I charged them $150 which they paid cash right after the shoot. I sent them the pictures and haven’t heard any feedback. But my girlfriend saw them and she thinks they are great. My student saw them and liked them. My brother saw them and liked them. So I trust they are good and that the XVera is happy with the results.
More money.
I make my money in very weird ways.
Buy my merch. Book a photoshoot. Book a tour. Or just give me money.
Oh yeah.
The person that sent the $66.66.
Gracias señor. He just messaged me. The great wiseman and friend: Szavio. Follow him on YouTube and watch his latest:
You can also give me money for that. For me to make an ad for you.
I’m an “influencer.” Fuck I hate that word. But people pay me to go to restaurants or make ads for them. I’m still 100% independent and I plan to keep it that way. But money. I like money money money cuz capitalism is still the game in 2025.
And I want to buy new shit. Though I’m happy with my 2013 iMac and my old ass cameras and still an iPhone X.
Shit. I still have an iPhone X. That came out 7 years ago.
Where is time going?!?!
AHH!!!!
This blog post needs a picture and I’ll use this:
I had a second birthday! This time with my girlfriend’s family. Girlfriend took that picture. I sold the lens to my brother-in-law and taught him briefly about photography (that was a week prior).
My mother-in-law made me pozole. It’s great. And OREGANO makes its taste better. They don’t use oregano for pozole in that house, but it was a request. My Instagram says the majority also use oregano. My tourists from yesterday said they don’t use oregano.
What do you think?! Does oregano belong in pozole?!
It does for me. I still have some in the fridge and I’m going to have it soon.
Then I have videos to edit and post. Then TikTok live. Then girlfriend time. And tour again tomorrow to get more video to do more edit to post more to get more business to make more money to buy more merch to sell merch to make money and do more tours and write more books to sell more books to get more merch and sell more prints.
Speaking of which. Shirts are ready! My brother just texted me. Club Aloha Tijuana Adventure shirts of the devil dancing with a woman in black and XXXL sizes are ready. I only made 25 and already sold a handful. Time to make an ad for that. And sell more shirts. And copy paste my life. Here’s the shirt:
$25 + $10 shipping. XXXL and XXXXL are a couple $3-4 more.
Gracias Serijuana for the great service and quality. Visit Serijuana to get your shirts now!
Hopefully, I’ll have more of a running online store soon. I need more merch for that. I’ll order more soon. I still have some old shirts to sell.
Hit me up if you want my merch! Selling now via DM mainly. Any of my social medias or through here.
Week 21.
This post could have been two posts. The post above is done. I’m not sure why I just didn’t sign off and posted. I wanted more content I guess. And I have a shit ton of content.
But first… breakfast.
Almost halfway through the year! FUCK!
I should write a summary of half the year so far, but I can barely even finish a summary of what happened the last two weeks. It feels like I’m always working and not working. I just got done editing and posting a video. And I have many more to go.
The year is going fast. Almost two years with my girlfriend. Smooth sailing. And we finally went to Ensenada. No sailing. But it was smooth.
I did two more tours and they both went great. Armando and his friends, and Tom and his girlfriend. The videos for all the tours are up. Find them on my TikTok and Instagram. I should post them on YouTube as well but so much work. And I’ve been getting support from my TikTok live that I’m going to revive my Patreon with celeb pictures again…
So much work. I have to finish this post and shower and go on TikTok live.
So much work. My brother has way more work. He just came back from vacation and the first thing he does is blow up his face. Literally. He had an accident with the hot water tank and he blew up his face. He went to the emergency for his burns and is doing fine now but still fucked up.
Bro. Get better. I don’t know what I would do without you.
So much work.
Shirts are ready. I have to pick them up. I have to help my brother setting up tomorrow for more work than he has.
So much work. I have to go live and keep promoting my shit. Long time ago I said TikTok seemed like money and it is. All social media is. The future. 2025.
I need more merch and more work.
Videos of the tours via TikTok:
Family tour:
Long walk real estate tour:
Armando and friends:
Tom and Alex and a rat:
Yeah. Weird shit happens.
There was a gigantic white rat in my last tour while drinking beers at Mamut. Seems like crazy shit is always happening to me. It hasn’t gone viral, maybe it needs the right song, maybe the right edit. Maybe people are used to seeing rats in downtown Tijuana. My first viralish video was rats in Tijuana.
Weird shit happens.
The world worlds.
We did go to Ensenada. It was great Ensenada Adventure. It’s another 100 videos that I recorded that I need to edit and post. I need to write a script about it or just wing it like always.
So much work. On top of it all I want to get Ensenada Adventure going. I started the Instagram a year ago and still have nothing. The Ensenada Beer Fest was going to be the first post but that went to shit. Now I have a bunch of videos to edit and post.
It was great. We had great seafood. We had great beers. And the original Margaritas. And we got fucked up and went back to the hotel to live up the Ensenasty.
Followed by a morning of a hike, seafood, and a bit of hungover beers.
The weather has been crazy. The life is mild crazy. More work. More money. More adventure. More content. And it’s going that way.
And more writing.
