I was born in the USA (American dad, Mexican mom) and taken to Mexico just three days after birth, I was raised and lived in Tecate where my parents
back in the 60's-70's had a Mexican Curios store:"Anita's" there I learned about Baja from the snowbirds coming thru town, I attended public school
from kindergarten thru college, while in college in Baja I was caught: an ILLEGAL in Mexico with no legal status, I had to apply for a FM-9 without
any problems while in school. I remember everyone calling me "gringo" or "güero", then about twenty years ago I applied and got my Mexican nationality
(a big legal issue back then: about five years in the process) after that I met my wife and came to the US, me and my family travel Baja every year...
no regrets, both countries are my home and my soul: God Bless America y Viva Mexico!!! American by birth, Mexican by choice.
