Well I promised I would write about everything, so it wouldn´t be true to form if I didn´t create an entry about the past few days in La Paz. However, let´s first go to happier times, 4 days ago... Trishy and I left stinky, dirty Puno, Peru on an ... Read more >

I can't believe that in the last 4 days I trekked 32 kms hiking through the magnificent Peruvian Andes. I trekked through a pass at an elevation over 12,000 ft, camped at freezing temperatures and felt all wonderful types of altitude sickness... all ... Read more >

Yes, we are. It took over 24 hours broken up into 3 days but we made it. I would write more but just as I was about to finish a well written entry about my last few days in Ecuador and my first impression of Peru we had a black out. An hour and a half ... Read more >

Once again, I´m back in Quito. I still feel like I´m on the boat as I sit here typing. I can still feel myself sway from the sea... Just a few days ago Trishy and I met up with our Intrepid group to embark on our Galapagos adventure. We were all dropped ... Read more >

We are leaving tomorrow for the Galapagos. I can't wait to see the boobies. You know, the blue-footed booby birds. Oh and the tortoises, penguins, flamingos, etc., etc. We are meeting up with our Intrepid group in a few hours to get to know one another ... Read more >

It´s hard to believe I´ve only been out of Quito for 5 days. It feels like ages ago that Trishy and I were sitting in Spanish class during the mornings and spending the afternoons trying to stay dry and awake (hey, Spanish is intense when you have 4 ... Read more >

So far Quito is definitely the nicest big city I have found myself in during the last month. It´s not too dirty (like Belize City), not too sketchy (Guatemala City) and surprisingly enjoyable to walk around. We are staying in ¨New Town¨ Quito where ... Read more >

Well the unfortunate happened. We were so close to making it to our one month travel mark on Sunday unscathed but we had some bad luck yesterday. Or rather, Trish had to bare the bad luck. On our last day in Costa Rica she had her wallet stolen out of ... Read more >

I´m sure that the title of this blog may be offensive to some but I´m sorry, I´m not a fan of the Holy Week. It has mostly made my life difficult and, well more expensive. Prices went up double in Antigua and we had to walk outside of town this morning ... Read more >

I am officially in love with Guatemala. I guess I had to come to the lake to figure this out so I´m very glad we made the trip. After departing Antigua Trish and I had a few lovely hours on a shuttle bus viewing Guatemala´s highland region. Here the ... Read more >

It has been a lovely past few days spent at Caye Caulker, an island about 20 miles outside of Belize City. After leaving Orange Walk on Monday morning (with what felt like the entire population of the town on the bus with us) we were happily on our way ... Read more >

It's been a very, very long day. Between delayed flights and waiting for the bus here is how the journey began: I've spent 7 hours waiting at airports (LAX and Houston), 5 hours on two different planes and 3 hours on an old beaten up American school ... Read more >
