Transpeninsular Mexico 1 from Turista Libre on Vimeo.
Baja California, Mexico. A two-day, 15-hour drive more than 1,000 kilometers down the Transpeninsular Mexico 1 highway from Tijuana to Mulege, Baja California Sur, rugged terrain that up until 1971 was accessible only by plane or boat. Crammed into one minute. And 11 seconds.
Mision Mulege from Turista Libre on Vimeo.
Misión de Santa Rosalía de Mulegé in Mulegé, Baja California Sur, Mexico. Construction began in 1754 and was finished in 1767. Per the placard: At the end of the 18th century, Mulegé had scarcely 100 people. Nevertheless, in the 19th century, a new generation was born who faced adversities and showed bravery and heroism during the 1846-1848 war with the United States. Therefore, Mulegé is a beloved place in southern California, from where the rise of the Mexican Nation was made possible. "Keen on Boys," The Radio Dept.
Guerrero Negro lighthouse from Turista Libre on Vimeo.
Guerrero Negro, Baja California Sur, Mexico. Follow the Faro Viejo signs through town and 20 minutes west down a dirt road, past the Brave New World windmill, across the bay and out to the old lighthouse. Bask in its Athenian crumble. Ponder the possibility of swimming to the salt beds on the horizon. "Are You Awake," Kevin Shields.
