Roller cumbia party in Tijuana Saturday, April 27!

A little audiovisual persuasion for next Saturday's roller cumbia party with DJ Chucuchu at Patines de Plata! Not that everyone needs to show up looking like an American Apparel ad, but leotards, hot pants and bodysuits will be warmly welcomed. Free booze to whoever shows up in a Dr. Simis head and/or quinceañera gown. Es en serio.

Riding the adventure seat all the way to Baja wine country

For our Valle de Guadalupe wine country trips Turista Libre travels in Toyota Hiace microbuses that seat 14 plus the driver. They're mobile palaces of Japanese ingenuity that make use of every nook, crevice and cranny. Except for the 14th seat, a platform between the driver and copilot that we've since started referring to as the "adventure seat." The yellow smiley face in the photo here marks the spot. If it weren't for the windshield, it'd be akin to riding on the hood.

While it's definitely not for those of above-average height, it's the last seat we have for this Saturday's trek. If you'd like to come along, it's yours for $75, a 25 percent discount off the regular price. Message us at turistalibre @ gmail.com for more details.

March madness a la mexicano

Nothing ushers one through a Tijuana winter quite like cheap beer and masked wrestling theatrics. March's installment of lucha libre starred names like Oficial AK-47, Hijo de Fisherman, Extasis, Fugitivo de Texas, Thundermachine, Animaniac, Shamu and Turista Libre's personal gender-bending patron saint of the ring, Ruby Gardenia. Headlining were Huracan Ramirez Jr., Hijo del Supremo and TJ Boy versus Canek Jr., Universo 2000 Jr., and Xtorm. Don't ask who's who. Except for Ruby. She's the one in pink.
