EL PESCADERO
El Pescadero is a town we visited all too briefly. But one we will definitely come back to. Mostly because we didn’t see the town, just the edge where it connects to route 19 (which is a great road, by the way!).
The Details
- There is a pho place right off of route 19 that you must visit. It’s technically a food court, but the stalls aren’t always occupied. It’s called Mai Plaza and the pho is very much worth it. Oh, and tell the owners I said hi. 🙂
- And if you’re looking for a place to park your RV (skoolie, van, etc), look no further than Baja Serena. It’s run and owned by a (now) friend called Asa. Super sweet man and family. It even has a small pool that is perfect for cooling off. And while you’re telling folks we said hi, definitely tell Asa we’re thinking of him.

On a Personal Note
We really want to come back here, but not for the reasons you might think. Yes, we didn’t get to see the main town, we were just there to regroup and connect to RV services, and we want to check out the rest of the area. But it was Asa at the RV park that we want to come back to. An incredibly wonderful and warm human being.

What if aliens weren’t here to conquer Earth—or even save it—but were simply passing through, living a long-term nomadic lifestyle we’re only just beginning to understand?
This episode uses Roswell New Mexico as a visual backdrop—not as a destination story, but as a supporting character—to explore a playful idea: that many of the struggles modern nomads face today are universal challenges of living untethered. Stealth camping, fuel anxiety, build-out obsession, bureaucracy, being misunderstood by society—these aren’t just van life or RV problems. They’re the predictable friction points of choosing mobility over permanence.
Through short walk-and-talk segments and observational humor, the video draws parallels between modern nomadic life (van life, bus life, RV living, unconventional travel) and a fictionalized version of alien explorers who’ve supposedly been doing this for millions of years. The humor isn’t about sci-fi tropes—it’s about perspective. When you step outside conventional living, you quickly realize how strange “normal” can be, and how quickly people project assumptions onto lifestyles they don’t understand.
This episode is designed for viewers who live—or are curious about—nomadic, unconventional, or alternative lifestyles, as well as anyone who’s ever felt out of sync with the standard script of settling down, staying put, and explaining themselves endlessly. While comedic in tone, the underlying theme is empathy: the idea that misunderstanding is often just unfamiliarity, and that freedom tends to look suspicious from the outside.
Rather than offering advice or solutions, this episode invites viewers to reflect on their own experiences with movement, identity, and being “out of place”—and to consider whether those challenges are flaws… or simply part of the deal.](https://www.masteringthesecondhalf.com/2ndhalfmastery/wp-content/plugins/youtube-feed-pro/img/placeholder.png)
