La Baja
Why is traveling known to be good for the soul?
For people like me, traveling has been a great way of exploring… seeing new places, learning different lifestyles, meeting new people but mainly having time to reconnect by taking a step back from our monotonous lives.
Growing up I would not think twice and follow my instinct with implusive decisions not ever having a plan - and everything unfolded perfect, always. I believe getting out of your comfort zone and opening yourself tends to connect to a part of yourself where adversity and the unknown create space for new. My last trip, I booked last minute tickets to Baja California Mexico and it felt like and old memory - freeing, and somewhat unexpected.
CASA BO
A very good friend of mine had mentioned a couple of months ago his friend owned a little boutique hotel in La Paz, right in town walking distance from everything. Casa Bo has 11 rooms and is located behind the Malecon. Saulo and Nadia, run this little gem. The architecture is simple and minimal, highliting the organic shapes of nature and its raw materials.
The common area is a desert like garden with a pool surrounded by cactus and a sand gradient mural imitating Baja’s landscapes. This place is just a little paradise.
Saulo and Nadia being artists themselves have decorated each room with pieces they design. From the bed frames to the galactic looking lamps that actually look like coral reefs, they’ve tried to keep a very clean yet detailed style. All is thought of accordingly to make the look and feel not override Baja’s nature.
