Week 40 (2025) – New Gig: Social Media Strategist – Full Moon #25 – Two New TJ Bars
I had the interview for the gig. It went well. More than well. The gig is mine. It doesn’t pay much, but it also doesn’t require me to do much. I’ll be crossing the border once a week to take pictures and videos and to get a free meal. Then I get to edit and…

Week 39 (2025) – New York City Part 2: Gigi Hadid and Book of Mormon – Tour Italiano – Spooky Season is Here, Photos Over at Patreon
I have a tour today, so I can’t write a lot. It’s with three Italians. It’s the first time I’m touring Italians. They didn’t want the full tour, so they are paying me by the hour, which is fine. I need to get more tours going. I need to get more gigs. I have an…

Week 36 (2025) – ABC Australia Podcast and all Podcast – 25 Full Moons and Off to New York – TJ Deserto and Social Animals
What a rollercoaster. My girlfriend rarely calls me. If she does, it must be something important. I was in the middle of a game of DotA and saw the call. I had to take it in the middle of the game. We still won. But that’s besides the point (it’s been a good win streak).…

Week 34 (2025) – End of Bad August and Bizarre Dreams – Fantasy Football Season Draft – Forastero and New Revu
I had the craziest of dreams. Too bizarre to even process. It had LAX, but they were apartments, and also a weird intergalactic brothel where you could switch bodies with other beings. And like always in my dreams. Very large bathrooms with a ton of showers. A lot of rooms with showers. It’s always in…

Week 33 (2025) – Welcome to Matingas Substack – La Ballena Legend and Okay Week – TJ Top 5 Burgers, Top 5 Cocktail Bars
This last week was sort of shit. No tours. I would like to have two tours a week, please, so I can be happy with my finances. Not only that, but I also received several messages and emails requesting a tour. A bunch of follow-up questions. Even agreeing on a meeting time. And then… nothing.…

Week 32 (2025) – Big Apple, 3 AM – Matingas Now on Substack – Bad Burger, Great Beer, and New Bar
New York in exactly a month. I’m excited. We’re excited. My girlfriend sends me dozens of TikToks about New York almost daily. I watch MOST of them. But there are too many. Many influencers have a whispery voice that I find annoying. I want to create my own content, not consume others. I have friends.…

Week 30 (2025) – TJ News Food and Drink Review (Innato and Club Ocampo)- Toros de Tijuana Tours – Store Fantasy, Books, and Bookings
I don’t have any upcoming tours. A few emails requesting September or October… but nothing for August. Although I don’t have tours, I still have a lot of work to do. The Tijuana Newsletter is a self-proclaimed success. I enjoy writing it. It gives me an outlet to voice my opinion the way I want.…

Week 29 (2025) – Ozzy Gone, Lens Sold – Viral Video Work, Sushi, and Tours – New Yorkjuana Plane Tickets Bought
Two tours in a row last weekend. And what a week I had. What a week for 2025. What a week for Trump. All the Epstein shit! Millenials! The world seems to end again. And I’m here doing tours and having fun times in Tijuana and getting paid to do it. July ends more than…

Week 28 (2025) – Changed Website and New About Me – San Diego Date Day – Tijuana Adventure Newsletters
I changed my website. I changed my attitude. How does it look? Let me know. The start of July was slow. Well… it started with a great tour that paid me double, but then it slowed down. It was my girlfriend’s birthday, and I did nothing but make sure she was happy. And then I…

Week 8 (2025) – Tijuana Party Tours and Deep Tissue Massage – Ensenada Beer Fest Package Tour!
It’s the end of February 2025. End of the short month that felt kind of long. Not that many tours but the month got rescued by a couple of tours by the end. I don’t have a tour this weekend. I got an email yesterday asking for a tour for today (very short noticed). I…

Week 1 (2025) – Houston Brewery Reviews and Family Xmas Love – Year Starts with a ton of Tours
It’s the first Monday of the year. I said I would write every Monday. The year started heavy with work. Four tours in a row. I’ve never done four tours in a row… However, I’ve done tours for three or four days straight (bachelor parties). People are hitting me up for bachelor parties this year.…

June 2024: Seattle Romantics – Tourists, Pinballs, Food, and Beer – Halfway through 2024 and More Tours
It didn’t rain one single day we were in Seattle. It drizzled one morning but we were snoozing. We slept until late and still manage to squeeze so many things in our Seattle visit. It went great. I’ve been video blogging it on all my medias. It barely gets views. But that’s okay. I like…

Tijuana Adventure Beer Guide 2025
I’ve been working on this guide for years and it is not complete because things change in the beer game so fast. This guide will constantly be updated until I publish it for 2025. With your support, I don’t want to stop in Tijuana but also cover Ensenada, Mexicali, and the rest of Baja. A…

May 2024: Tijuana Beer Guide 2025 – Haters and Fans – More Gigs, More Jobs, More Merch
I’m going to be 38 in a month. I’ve been writing my blog a couple of weeks before the month in the title, no idea why. I write when I feel like writing and when I have the time. I got published twice this week. First article I got some nasty comments. But hey. At…

Hey. I’ll write all of this tomorrow. That’s what I always tell myself. Let’s see if tomorrow I’ll write it. It’s tomorrow. It rained all morning. My girlfriend went to work. I spent the last days of the year with her. I spend the first days of the year with her. I still like her…

October 2023: CDMX Beers – Depeche Mode Shirtless – Support Me on Patreon!
I have a new patron and I’m not sure who he is. That’s new. Thank you, stranger. I should believe in myself. Jackie Bryant’s blog is back after maternity leave. She is a fantastic cannabis writer and now, a motherhood writer. I miss my mom. Jackie inspired me. Not only is her blog fantastic, but…

September 2023: The Last of the Bumble Matches – Full Blue Moon Accidental Romance – Mexicali Cover Done, But Need More Gigs, and Tours
Monday, September 11th, 2023. Never forget. It’s been 22 years. Where were you? I was in Middle School in Querétaro. No one in the classroom found out what happened until they went home later that day. I was pulled out of the classroom. My mom was in tears. My brother lived in New Jersey and…

August 2023: Power Tripping Fucking Pig – Benito the New Roommate – Drinking Beers in Hell with Little Satan
Well… It happened again. It’s been almost a decade since it happened. But it happened. I was thrown into the cell of Zona Norte for committing no crime except standing up for my rights. Cop fucked up and he knew it, but he doubled down. He wanted me to apologize. He then told me a…

July 2023: I’m Hell Bound (Mexicali) – Tijuana Dentist and Fucked Up Car – New Roommate or New Girlfriend?
I’m going to hell on purpose. I made up my mind. Next week, I’m getting on a bus, and going to hell. I’m going to Mexicali. It’s what I’m missing in Baja to complete a huge craft beer guide. Covering more than 50 breweries in the state. Let’s see how it goes. I’m also going…

April 2023: Atlanta – A Baja Fantasy – Beers Around the World
Atlanta, I barely know you. But I like you. It’s one of my favorite shows: Atlanta, with Donald Glover. And I don’t mind the sports teams there. I don’t like them. I don’t dislike them. I like Atlanta. Fuck the airport though. That fucker stressed me out on Monday morning. The line to security was…

Nothing but Waiting – Sad, Sadder, Yet Okay – LA Trip for Job Opportunity, LA Beers
I’m doing nothing but waiting and I hate it. It was a busy weekend of work training and I liked it. I rather be busy. I’m waiting on the e-mail with the job offer. Or the job rejection. They paid me to drive up to LA, they paid for my hotel, and they paid me…

December: CDMX Beer Adventure, TikToking in La City – Querétaro Huapango Wedding – Tijuana Adventure en Español!!!
December is flying by. And not in a good way. It started with my flight back from my adventure. And I returned ill. Very ill. It started the day before my flight. I was bedridden with diarrhea and a fever. Meds made me feel better. And I needed it before the flight. I was sick…

Tijuana Friday Drama – Media Salivates at Disaster – Bye Tj, Me Voy!
Tijuana drama. Bye Tijuana. I’m leaving you. That’s what I keep saying. At least I bought my ticket to Mexico City. But that’s late in November. And it’s for a good friend’s wedding. This is my chance to take killer photos and make my wedding photography business grow. Also, a great chance to see all…

August of Heat, Love, and Work – Tours and Shoots – YouTube Monetization, Subscribe!
My girlfriend broke up with me on Sunday via text. She said she didn’t want to see me anymore… And then she showed up Monday morning in my apartment. I was in the bathroom when I got her text message if I was up. I said I was. She said she was outside… She tries…

Long Exposure Selfie on the Cover (Again) -July is Over – OnlyFans Photoshoot
I feel the need to be productive because it’s Monday, so I type and type. Otherwise, I would be playing DotA or Fall Guys. I just lost a ranked match. Waste of time. I just won a crown. Waste of time. Same thing. Win or lose. Waste of time. But hey, it’s entertainment. This week…
