welcome !! wow, if you are going to be here for months, there is lots to do and see

definitely see Shari, above, in Bahia Asuncion
definitely visit us in La Bocana, BCS for fishing

San Ignacio has rice and beans for hooking up ... probably other places too.
It is an oasis and it is just gorgeous .... absolutely incredible.





Come visit La Bocana

See Shari in Bahia Asuncion and BajaBlanca in La Bocana!

(I have no fiancial interest in either of their business, but will vouch that you won't regret spending time with either of them or their towns. Nomad is about helping others to discover fun in Baja.)

Why not contribute something that does a visitor some good instead of raining on others here?

Maybe I did and you just didn't agree. Maybe it didn't contribute anything, but I thought I was entitled to my observation. Didn'tknow you were the board Police. Now I know. I'll try to do better in the future. Sir

Go stay with Shari and see what a great time you can have... even if you don't fish! Blanca also does a nice job and helps the local kids so much with getting them bikes. What is wrong with them inviting Nomads to enjoy their businesses and areas? If it were just 'take take take 'I would agree with self promoting being questionable... But these two ladies GIVE, GIVE, GIVE... You read Nomad, you should see this too, norte.

Thanks for listening!

The key on this website is to provide an experience that merits the pandering. I absolutely cannot fault anyone running a business that posts here. The proof is in the pudding. You run a business and post here, but your offering falls way short? Well, the truth will out. Frankly, I cannot recall a single negative post on this forum about either Shari or Blanca and their places. So, I really don't think anyone ought to be dissing them. That's not to say that from time to time, we do find charlatans and trolls posting. But these two women are obviously the real deal, offering gracious hospitality.

That said, I'll expose my ignorance. EH????

Are you trying to tell me you don't use this board to promote your family businesses? If so you lost a lot of credibility with me. Oh and nice language for a business woman.

ohhh you got me there norte....jeepers I wouldnt want to lose credibility with you....this board does bring alot of folks our way and I am happy to show people around whether they stay with us or not...but in this particular post I was simply welcoming a paisano to the neighbourhood.

Can I not be friendly without being accused of trolling??? sheesh. I enjoy contributing positive and informative comments here and would do so whether I had a business or not.
sorry if my language offended you...i admit I dont have the cleanest mouth in baja.:saint:

Mood: Gettin' Better

[*] posted on 10-27-2010 at 05:02 PM


I must admit that I will shamelessly plug Shari and Juan's ventures in BA, not just because they are genuine folks who work hard and are generous and kind souls, but also in hopes that by sucking up to them ....er, uh....promoting them ;D:lol::saint: ...I might get invited to some of their wonderful social occasions when in the neighborhood:light:

Norte, I am known to also offer rude comments on BN when a post bothers me....just don't know what bothered you about her welcome mat? She can hold her own, so WTF is wrong with that?

Fellow BCer Dave....Bahia Concepcion is a spectacular place to hang out (Mulege is better than Loreto I think as it is a bit more "typical")....Cabo is a good place to avoid but go there just to have a taste....this forum is a great place to get info....and opinions. Welcome to the sandbox....:biggrin:




Don't believe everything you think....

the ocean is 10-15 degrees cooler than usual...that is to say it's in the mid 60's...perfect for a nice bracing dip...too cold for snorkeling without a wet suit unless you have awfully thick skin....Ok for boogie boarding and shore fishing....i think the water is too cold when my ankles go numb...so it's just nice right now...for canucks anyway.

Good day, eh?


Welcome aboard and here's to you Daveylikesit!





I have no stake in any businesses, but if I didn't have other plans, I would absolutely consider Shari & Bajablanca as potential hosts. They bring a positive vibe to the tribe here.




When the way comes to an end, then change. Having changed, you pass through.

Hi Davey

Hope you enjoy the trip. We have been going to Baja off and on for 16 years from southern BC. Contact me on u2u if I can help. This thread sort of wandered all over
