What No One Tells You About Mexico City

🎧 Short on time? Listen on Spotify Mexico City is the capital of Mexico and the largest city in North America, with over 21 million people in its metropolitan area. Can you even imagine a million people? When you're in Mexico City as a tourist, you don’t just picture it—you feel it. Some places you visit are so packed, it’s like nothing you’ve ever seen before. The sheer volume of humanity is overwhelming… and yet, strangely exhilarating. It’s chaotic, yes, but there’s a kind of joy in witnessing that much life all at once. I’d stop in my tracks, overwhelmed by the scene—then dive into filming, snapping photos, trying to hold onto the feeling. And yet, in the middle of all that, life carried on. People were deep in their routines, focused, committed, completely unaware that someone nearby was marveling at the beauty of their everyday. You feel that scale immediately when arriving by air—tiny houses stretch endlessly, packed tightly together like a living mosaic....

Tactical Gear

My Tacticle Creator Kit 

Gemini sMy Tactical Creator Kit

"As a Level 8 Local Guide and professional contributor with over 70 million views on Google and Pexels, I only carry gear that survives the journey. Whether I'm on an 8-mile hike or a 25-mile road ride, these are the tools I use to capture the world."


2. The 5 Main Categories

  • The Professional Eye (Canon EOS Rebel T7): This is my "Beauty" camera. When I need high-resolution shots for my book covers or commercial Pexels uploads, I rely on the 24.1MP sensor of the T7 to capture the true depth of a landscape.

  • The Aerial Perspective (DJI Drone): I use this to break the "ground-level" perspective. It’s essential for showing the scale of the wilderness in places like Peru or the winding roads I cycle on.

  • The Immersive View (Insta360): This is my "Invisible Camera." It stays mounted while I move, capturing a full 360-degree environment so I never miss a moment while I'm focused on the trail.

  • Action Multi-Cam (Dual GoPros): I utilize a two-camera GoPro setup for cycling and high-intensity movement. One captures my Point of View (POV), while the other focuses on the action, giving me a professional "multi-angle" edit.

  • The Command Center (iMac Tahoe 26.3.1): Everything is processed here. Editing 4K drone footage and managing my software development requires a high-performance machine that keeps up with my pace.
