Das nächste Mal w**de ich mein Handy auch in d** Socke v**stecken, wie die Psychologin und vllt finde ich meins ja auf dem Schwarzmarkt wied**! =D Od** ein and**es, das irgendjemandem zuvor geklaut wurde.

Noch kurz zu dem was ich im Projekt mache. Wenn ich morgens um 10 komme, haben ...

... einen zum natürlich schönsten, billigsten und besten Hotel im Ort führen wollen! Wir haben uns dann für Orquídea dorata (vergoldete Orchidee) entschieden und dort für ca. 12 Euro übernachtet. Es war nicht mega luxuriös, hatte aber n Pool mit Rutsche (auch wenn das Wasser etwas trüb war und sie wohl bloß jeden Tag mehr Chlor reinkippen, anstatt das Wasser zu reinigen), die Zimmer waren sauber und es gab ein Dampfbad! Balsam für meine armen ...

... eager entrepreneurs trying to take our baggage to a taxi, and very well dressed gentleman encouraging us to change hotels, which I was warned about in advance. We took no notice and made our way to an ATM to get some lose change. Having had a look around we were seduced by one such entrepreneur who agreed to a taxi into Bogota for 15mil pesos (about $7.50USD).He bundled our luggage onto a trolley at lightning speed and took us to a waiting taxi, then requested his ...

... had work there as well including Dali, Degas, Monet, Picasso, and many more. I loved Botero`s work best though (his paintings and sculptures of rotund everythings, especially women). I did post a few of those photos on my last entry just because I thought they were so cool.

Now I must go and eat some breakfast so I can head out. Please write me and let me know if you have any questions or would like to know more about any aspect of my trip.

Feliz dia a todos!

... schools around the area to look for work. I love you all! Hope all is well! I will keep these updates frequent, but probably only three-four times a week. Don't want to overload anyone. I know you all are concerned about my safety and welfare. Thanks! Keep on being concerned, as I am confident that you will all look past the tabloids, and CNN, and understand that to be truly educated about a different country, you just have to go and be there yourself. Happy Mother's Day!!!!!! Ciao!

... no tan rápido como lo he hecho en los últimos años, en los que he vivido mil cosas de una mujer grande, pero no me arrepiento porque ya sé qué debo hacer cuando me vuelva a casar".

... them trying every key, they let us kick the door in, at about 1 in the morning.  No, no one was bothered, no one stopped rocking their beds and no one stepped into the hallway to see what the big racket was all about - it was all just sort ofin  a bluzzy fuzzy way, normal. We slept poorly that night, with alarms going off in the street and it getting fairly cold in the room.  But we got up in the morning and said "lets go find a better place to stay..."

... scenic. As we approached Quito, the cloud cover began to increase and there was lightning all around us. During our descent, it took about 10 minutes to emerge from under the clouds as they were very low over the city. When we were under 1000 feet, I said to Steve that I thought we were coming in a little hot, much faster than any landing I had ever experienced so I was a little apprehensive. Regardless the pilot continued his regular landing until we were within 100 feet of the ...

... quite special to see all the happy hugs and kisses between their family, the excited little kids and proud grandparents,haha. I even got something: a nice aftershave and a solid pair of good quility shoes! Later Santa arrived outside on a horse-cart! So all the kids and I jumped on the back and took a little ride Father Chrismas around the neighbourhood! ...then the drinking started! It's meant to ...

... not be doing, then, once we have stopped doing these things, perhaps our original question will be answered. But we cannot take a short-cut to the knowledge of the purpose of our existence, if we keep doing the things we are not supposed to be doing. How do we know that we are not supposed to be doing the mentioned things? Not sure... it just doesn't seem like we should be doing these - call it intuition, gut feeling, listening to one's heart. I think we should do more of this type of ...
