Nestled near the water of Baffin Bay in Riviera, Texas, south of Corpus Christi, lies La Pesca Lodge. A new luxury, all-inclusive hunting and fishing Lodge fit for outdoor enthusiasts and those with a taste for the finer things alike. Aptly dubbed the home of the “trophy speckled trout” and most likely spot to catch your personal best, La Pesca is a destination all on its own!

As the bird flies, Mexico City appears to be so far out of reach. Yet, for San Antonians, we can be in the heart of the city within two hours on a direct flight! As a solo-female traveler, touching down in CDMX (Ciudad de México) for the first time felt quite daunting, despite my experience traveling abroad alone. With a phone running on empty and international cell service that hadn’t kicked in yet, I found a taxi and said a quick prayer as I embarked on what would become the trip to discover the city that stole my heart.

To drive or to fly? That is usually the first question when planning a New Mexico trip, specifically to Santa Fe. While there is an airport in nearby Albuquerque, I always prefer to make the drive through West Texas and into the desert. At under eleven hours (around 700 miles for those measuring distance non-Texan), it’s a straight shot from San Antonio to the “City Different.” A city well worth the trip..
