The first episode of the Cannabis Tourism Podcast takes place on location in Simio Autocultivo, a cannabis brand and cultivation shop based in San Cristobal de Las Casas, Chiapas, Mexico.

This episode is bilingual and features Ernesto Medina and Javier Alejando Alcazar Camposeco, the founders of Mesoamericanna - a newly established regional council that exists to elevate cannabis culture and the cannabis industry in the state of Chiapas, Mexico.
