Back in the States, with over a thousand pictures and over 50 pages of journaling to sort out before I can post on the blog. As soon as my overly-busy schedule gives me time (and as soon as my English returns to an acceptable level) I'll give full updates on my last 6 weeks in South America. But for now a quote to reflect on...
"Whether you're a Lebowitz or a Messner, an adventure is an experience that pushes your personal envelope, that forces you out of your day-to-day comfort zone. A true adventure, in addition to being exhilarating and inspiring, should also make you tired, nervous, disoriented, a little scared. My own personal definition goes like this: It's not really an adventure unless, at some point during the trip, I say to myself, 'What the fuck am I doing here?'" David Noland
And, a Chilean song to brighten your day!
