"I live here"

Do not ask why but lately I have enjoyed the night life of Cabo, places like Nowhere, Mandala, Cabo Wabo and even Squid Roe are seeing more of my beautiful face this summer.

And the first question a guy comes and ask me or any of my friends is:

"Where are you coming from?"

And of course I get to say "I live here" and the look of their face! is like almost saying "what a lucky girl you are!"

Well this time I am going to ask all of my kind people that have the privilege of living in Cabo to be grateful, because we are very, very lucky. Just a little reminder of what we the "Choyeros" should be thankful of:


  • Beautiful 77°F beaches to swim at.
  • Being able to watch both, Sunrise and sunset from the ocean, depends if you are in San José or in San Lucas. 
  • Watching moon reflection on the sea.
  • Amazing and fresh seafood available 360 days of the year.
  • The best weather, except of course for the warmth of July, August and September.
  • The greatest and finest restaurants to enjoy good wine and excellent cuisine, or just being able to make a picnic at the beach, your bottle of wine, bread and cheese, will make just the perfect date.
  • Dunes of the desert to enjoy ATV'S activities, or amazing photo shooting.
  • Having oasis in the desert such as Sierra de La Laguna, Todos Santos, Miraflores, and many magic places that display animal life, plants and water at its primmest.

  • Being able to witness a whale jumping in the ocean, during a Whale Wathching tour.
  • Fabulous farmers market to buy the organic vegetables grown in the area, and fantastic food or treats cooked by locals hands.
  • Living in one of the safest places of the world.

Just to mention a few... so if you do not live here, come! This is your moment, and if you live here, take 2 minutes to say "Gracias", and continue with the amazing life, maybe go and have a beer by the nearest beach... just because "YOU LIVE HERE!"

Love Cabo, Save Cabo #CaboforLife.

SOS - WE WILL DEFEND OUR LIFE, OUR WATER

Yes, we will stand up for our water. All of us, locals and tourists are committing ourselves to make loud and clear our position: we do not want Toxic Mining in our Estate. 

Salinas Pliego, owner of Grupo Mexico and TV AZTECA is the one trying to do mining here in Baja, but is not the mining that is the problem, is the way to extract the gold, using CYANIDE, and ARSENIC, both very dangerous and devastating. And if it could get any worst is also, the place where they intent to do it, La Sierra de La Laguna.

We are talking about Sierra de La Laguna, the ONLY source of water for Cabo, La Paz and Todos Santos, not only that but is has been named a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO. This is our oasis in the dessert, it is the home of many endemic species and it is the place where dessert meets the green and tall pine trees. 





S.O.S. is for Sociedad Organizada Sudcaliforniana (Organized Sudcalifornians Organization). Everyone in the Touristic Sector of Baja, stablished in the State decades ago, is getting organized to manifest the support to work towards making Cabo a World Touristic Destination. Tourism is the main source of employment and it should remain like that.

S.O.S. is showing all the risks and making sure that the Government understand why this is not at all beneficial to our area, so that this ends now and for good. No more companies trying to explode in a very toxic manner our land, leaving nothing but devastation and pollution behind. 

Be ready!! bring all your family, your friends, coworkers... this is going to be big and very important to help all the other actions taking place in order to defend our water. Bring a hat, be on time and in a GREEN dress code, and bring your water.

Please FOLLOW Baja Sur Viva in Facebook and keep your self informed. This is happening thanks to all of us. 

Thank you Baja Sur Viva for all the info provided to do this article, forgive my English, hope it has been well translated, at least the main message
