I am looking for someone to show me around, introduce me to some locals and translate for journalistic/ photo project in Mexicali.
Can anyone one recommend somebody? 2-3 days in December, paid.
Thanks
I thought most traveling journalists hire a local journalist as a fixer. You might try reaching out to a local journalist for local support.David K - 11-22-2023 at 04:46 PM
I met a lieutenant in the Mexicali police. He tried to drive his Cherokee across the empty (low tide) lagoon, onto Shell Island (20 years ago). We
pulled him out just as the incoming tide was reaching his doors.
Well, he told me that if I ever got into a problem in his city, just ask for Lieutenant Miranda! How easy was that to remember! I hope he is a Captain
of Chief now!!bentelford - 11-22-2023 at 07:21 PM
Ok, so no one knows anything on here
Thanks mtgoat666 - good suggestion.David K - 11-23-2023 at 10:02 AM
You see, most or nearly all of us go to Baja California to get away from cities and civilization. Baja is a cure for civilization... at least the
majority of the peninsula, which lays between the border cities and the Cape region.
Cities are fine if that's your thing, and Baja's cities offer much (great food, for one)... Mexicali is just a border city most Nomads want to get
through without incident. Don't be angry with us. There are many Facebook Groups about Baja, try there. TalkBaja comes to mind...bentelford - 11-23-2023 at 10:44 AM
Thanks David K - useful suggestions.
Oh, I'm not angry - let's say amused by the infantile population on here with nothing better to do. What a dud forum. I probably know Baja as well or
better than any of you guys, just not Mexicali.pacificobob - 11-23-2023 at 11:58 AM
Such a charmer!WideAngleWandering - 11-26-2023 at 02:01 PM
Yeah you're going to get a lot of helpful advice with your attitude.
I am sure it will take your project far.
Please report back on how the insults fair when you cross the border.pacificobob - 11-26-2023 at 03:50 PM
Yes, be sure to mouth off at the cops. Say something about their moms.RFClark - 11-26-2023 at 09:52 PM
