Due to the popularity of my picture of the hamster line up, I have decided to put up more pics so you can better understand this, one of Colombia's great mysteries. As my sister said best, "Don't keep all those hamster pictures to yourself." Very well, I'll share... So, it starts out that you see a lot of people standing around in a circle, in Bogota, in the Center. Naturally, you go to check it out. When you see these adorable hamsters, of course you have to smile, and nudge up closer for a better look, and to try to figure [View Full Entry]

ha ha. Well, been having just a good time in Colombia. Yeah, some good has passed, some bad too. Where to start? So, I guess I left off telling you how Colombian girls are the most beautiful in the world. Well, I´ll stick to it, don´t worry... Since then...geez. I guess I should tell you how I got robbed in the park. So, I was sitting in the park with two of my amigas, who, coincidentally are beautiful colombian girls...anyway, we were taking a picture of the three of us with the cell of one of the girls. I said, let [View Full Entry]

I’ve been meaning to write a blog for a while, and had lots of ideas of what to say, and of course, the time passed, and I’ve mostly forgotten everything. Oh well. I guess I’ll start from scratch. Just wanted to write a bit from Colombia, to try to describe what it is like here. First, some catching up. So, I went to Valaparaiso, Chile, which was really cool. Got to see the beach a bit, get burned. Now I’m dreaming of a tropical vacation, thinking, what am I doing here in Bogota? I love everything about Bogota, it’s a great [View Full Entry]

Well, I had my first adventures in Chile, I have to say it was quite amusing. Or I should say, misadventures. But are there any other kind? Sometimes you go looking for trouble. Sometimes it just finds you. I was passing a fairly lonely time, and as one of my friends told me, you just have to embrace the loneliness, so, I did, and it was going pretty well. I was enjoying myself walking around the city alone. When you get to a new country, you have a moment that's like, wow, I'm in a new country. That moment was lasting [View Full Entry]

OK, I made it to Chile alive...had quite an adventure getting here. I already like Chile. I started being well disposed to it on the drive over, beautiful andes, and when we crossed to the chile side, things started getting more green, it was awesome. The other side is more dry, I guess cause all the clouds drop their rain on the Andes before. So, this ends my latin american epic, I think. There is still plenty I haven't seen, but you'll never see it all, you always only see a small portion of the world or wherever. But on the [View Full Entry]

Here I am from Buenos Aires. I guess this is the first blog since I made it. I don´t have long to write, but i guess I could write a few things. Well, it´s great to be back in south america, I like it here. I guess, all I can say is, a lot of people ask you what your plan is, like at the hostel and what not. Sometimes, we walk a foggy road. The path of life is like that, and it depends on the weather. Sometimes, it´s a bit misty and you can´t really see too far ahead. [View Full Entry]

ah, to leave... I just walked around the driveway with my cats for the last time... we go on walks sometimes, and we just went out at night. I figured, since it's my last night here, we had better go now, and walking, some thoughts came to me and I thought, if I don't write them now, I never shall. Me and the cats walked by the old black walnut tree, the mist rising up from everything after the rain, seeing the cats' silhouettes walk with me, stopping to pet them. The air this time of year is such a potent [View Full Entry]

Well, seeing Flo was really cool. I got to see Isabella again, who I hadn't seen for years. She now speaks english and spanish. It was neat to see their home and hang out with the family. We got to go to a birthday party, and Coco, Flo's husband, took me golfing for my first time. Then we went out to his hometown, had a drink, and met a bunch of his old friends. Everyone was super friendly! Flo has two girls now, Isabella and Olivia. And she's thinking of having a boy... thanks to Flo and Coco for the great [View Full Entry]

God bless America it is sweet to be home, under that flag of stripes and stars. I never knew how good the states are until I left for so long. Now I can see the good. Of course there's bad too... well, here I am back in the good ol u s of a, and I have to say it feels good. I got my piano back, I been playing a lot, and I just been relaxing, and it was just what I needed. So, my trip is over. Now it's time to chill out and move on to that next [View Full Entry]
