CDMX with tattooist, Moe Saavedra
Moe Saavedra is a tattoo artist, born and raised in CDMX. Five years ago he opened his own studio, 3x3 Tatuajes, specialising in American Traditional Tattoos. It’s worth booking a tattoo with Moe just to hang out at his studio, it’s full of weird and wonderful art and books collected from his trips and he always has the best playlist of 90’s Hip Hop and Stoner Rock on rotation. When he’s not behind the needle, Moe is usually spending time with his family, skateboarding, hitting up conventions or planning his next trip. His favourite hood is Centro Historico, “You can find anything here, it’s got something for everyone”.

Tianguis la Búfalo
“I find lots of cool weird stuff at this flea market. A lot of frames for art in my studio. Be warned this market is next to a trash station so I’ll shop there but I would never eat there haha. There are other good flea markets such as Lagunilla but now there’s a lot more tourists so the prices are higher. La Bufola is where you can find weird stuff super cheap.”
