Crossing Lines and Breaking Bread: A MicroCon Day Trip Like No Other

You can learn a lot about a place by showing up before the world’s fully awake. That’s exactly what The Sultan and Chief did—strolling the quiet streets of Playas de Tijuana early on a Friday morning, cameras rolling, taking you along for a personal, unvarnished look at the seaside borderland where two worlds collide. Their new video tour just dropped, and it’s not just travel porn—it’s a postcard from the edge, a reminder that borders are real, but so is curiosity.

This is one stop—just one—on the all-ages MicroCon 27: North America day trip to Mexico, happening Friday, August 6th, leaving from San Diego. Tickets are on sale now. If you’re a micronationalist, there’s something poetic—maybe even a little rebellious—about standing where the towering steel border wall dissolves into the Pacific surf, tracing monuments that mark the line between “them” and “us.” It’s a meditation on identity, sovereignty, and tacos.

And then there’s Puerto Nuevo. Sleepy, sun-warmed, and sitting pretty above the sea, this fishing village is where the day slows down. Mariachi music hums in the breeze, souvenir vendors smile, and lunch—real lunch—happens on the water. Lobster, beans, rice, cold drinks, and conversation. No fancy dress code. No guards at the door. Just the kind of place where you can breathe, eat, and be a little more human.

Worried about safety? Don’t be. This part of Baja is chill, welcoming, and well-trodden by travelers who’ve done it all before. You’ll be in good hands, back in San Diego by nightfall, with a few more stories in your pocket than you had that morning.

So grab your passport, a sense of adventure, and maybe a pen—because moments like these deserve stamps, selfies, and signatures in the history books of tiny nations everywhere. Reserve your spot HERE.
