SoCal vs. Mazatlan, biggest upgrade relative to distance
I went on a vacation to Mazatlan, Mexico, which lies near the Tropic of Cancer. Tbh Mazatlan is the best value destination for West Coast mitos.
My flight from Tijuana (I’m near SD) to Mazatlan was less than $200 round trip and only 2 hours and 20 mins.
I think Mazatlan is to me what Yucatán is to Dr. Kruse (he has residences in the Florida panhandle and Louisiana, I believe).
Mazatlan is the northernmost tropical city in Mexico. As a result, I’d predict its location is not as effective of a cure as El Salvador for things like seasonal depression, leaky gut, etc. However, it gets the job done and is a very popular destination among Canadian snow birds from British Columbia and the Prairies.
It’s really amazing how big of a difference latitude makes as someone born and raised in a SoCal beach town. Mazatlan only has 3G/4G service, so from the minute I landed, it felt like a load had been taken off my nervous system. The sun and sky are orange in a way I rarely see in SoCal. I can feel myself detoxing in real time.
My stomach has become noticeably flatter and it seems like I’m gaining a bit of muscle without even trying. Harder morning erections, etc. As a relatively healthy young man of Mediterranean genetics, Mazatlan is equatorial enough to move the needle.
My flight here was less than half the LAX to San Salvador flight price, so safe to say west coast mitos should check it out.
