I am currently living alone in Mexico in a van w/ my cat and here's what I recommend! LMK if you have questions!
Packing List:
Baja Roads are TOUGH so donβt forget:
β’ Extra water jug
β’ Tow straps
β’ Flat tire kit
β’ Shovel
β’ Recovery tracks
β’ Jumper Cables
β’ Shore power cables and
β’ Your tool box
β’ Extra Butane or Propane for Cam Stoves
β’ Leveling Blocks
If you're here for a while, stock up on anything you may not be able to get here!
β’ Toiletries
β’ OTC Medications
β’ Supplements
β’ Any medications
β’ Electrolytes (my favorite is @nuun)
Cat/Pet Packing List:
β’ Extra Food
β’ Treats
β’ TICK & FLEA MEDS. (I use @frontline)
β’ Glow in the dark collars
β’ Extra trackers & harneses
β’ Make sure to have all of their vet paperwork up to date for the border
Internet & Service:
β’ Bring WALKIE TALKIES. This is so helpful for caravans
β’ If you are remote working, you can't rely on service. I HIGHLY recommend getting STARTLINK.
β’ For phones, I use @tmobile because they have free call/text in Mexico
β’ For emergencies, I have my @garmin In Reach Satellite Phone
Insurance:
β’ Van Insurance: @bajabound
β’ Health Insurance: World Nomad
Safety & Money:
β’ DO NOT keep your money all in one place. Hide smaller and larger bills all over your van- JUST IN CASE. You may get pulled over and need a few small bills.
β’ I also recommend bringing a backup phone JUST IN CASE (I do this in every country I am in)
β’ Take photos & make copies of all of your IDs. Just in case. There are times you may get pulled over and you don't want to give them originals.
β’ Note: you will pass through at least 6 military checkpoints on your way down to Cabo-- just be polite! They may ask to do a small inspection.
Border:
β’ I crossed at Mexicali and thought it was VERY smooth.
β’ FMM CARD: After the first gate, turn left into a declarations parking lot. Bring your passport & $40 and they will give you an FMM card (almost like a visa)
