No Tegucigalpa, it's not my preference =) so B&W rules now? Did you know that they show the colors of the Soul? =) I enjoyed Copan, what's next? Hugs, maria
yeahhhh there you are again! ჱܓ Lovely reading and traveling with y'all again... It makes me want to go back to Guatemala, I hardly remember the few days I spent there decades ago. This has been an amazing journey for the two of you, just imagine the memories you're creating. I appreciate you're taking time to share the adventures with us. You also seem to be leaving the best for last, joining a classroom again, learning a new language, doing volunteer work and getting a view of Heaven's gate. Please make sure I can have links to all these places you have been for future referral! Hugs, maria
so appreciative that you share. I hope to keep these links. Maybe one day I will visit the places you have been to, link again and use the posts and tips. I enjoy the write-ups more than I can express. Smiling from ear to ear. Keep safe and keep traveling. =) maria
❦ The journey never ends. Only travelers do. And even they can prolong themselves in memories, in remembrances and in narratives. When the traveler sat on the beach and said: “There is nothing left to see,” he knew it wasn’t that way. It’s necessary to see what you haven’t seen, to see again what you have already seen, to see in the Spring what you have seen in the Summer, to see during the day what you have seen at night, to be in the sun where it first rained, to see green crops, fresh fruit, a rock that has been moved, a shadow that wasn’t there before. One has to retrace steps already taken, to take them again and blaze new paths beside the old one. The end of a journey is only the beginning of another. One must start the journey again. Always. The traveler will be right back.” – Jose Saramago, a favorite Portuguese author
yeahhhh there you are! ჱܓ I was missing y'all. Can you keep coming North and spend some time here in Houston? Thanks for the update, smiling real big! =)
❦ A man needs to travel. On his own, not through stories, images, books or what is on TV. He needs to travel with his eyes and feet, to understand what is his. …And one day, to plant his own trees and cherish them. Having known cold to enjoy heat. And its opposite. Having felt separation and homelessness, to be comfortable under his own roof. A man needs to travel to lands foreign to him, so as to break way from the arrogance that leads us to see the world as we imagine it, and not as it actually is, or can be. And that makes us think we are experts of what we have never experienced, when we should rather be life-long apprentices and just go out and see. - Amyr Klink in \"Mar sem fim.\"
Hurray, You made it to Machu Picchu =) I was looking forward to reading about your adventures and photos. It was a lot of fun. I feel like going back! Thanks for sharing, hugs to you both, maria
Hello there =) Hi David&Elenor... oh, we have so nice memories of our walk together in El Chalten. Please come to Houston and visit us: free room and board and a fantastic juice bar every morning! =) Pls keep up with the writing, am looking forward for more! maria
Amazing Hi Both
Seems like another great adventure. The pictures match your description of the sights.
Bit daft wading in freezing water though. You can do that in summer back home
Take care you dont get busmans arse with all that sitting down for hours.
Have a great time on the next leg.
Nearly bump in each other Hi, would have been fun to bump in another tb member...Puerto Madryn and Peninsula Valdes are going to receive some nice attention with your blog! Peter
Whats it all about Alfie? Hi Son
Sounds like you are both into the Indiana Jones tourism thing. Ellie exploring on her own...never! You on the beach... eating? You must have been. Did the dogs taste nice?
If the place you are in reminds you of Lost just recall Leadgate in winter. I would not swop a trip down a mine with a football hating guide for a week in tumbleweed city. At least Lost had an end to it.
If your digs are poor there Im sure there is a place in Argentina where you can stay the night in a place quite cheaply. Its called something like Fray Bentos. Some people have a beef about this but I just think its a corny excuse and i would can it if i had my way. There is a key to finding it so im told but that may be just a ruse.
Enjoy the scenery and dont go too far off the beaten track.
Take care son.
I'm a 29 year old psychologist travelling South America for 9 months with my wife (Eleanor). This blog is, hopefully, a decent account of our trip and may provide some perspectives or insights for others hoping to do a similar trip or for friends and family to catch up what we've actually been up to.... full info
