About this blog

Itīs good to dream. Henceforth, hereīs an outlandish list of what I think might happen during my summer in Argentina. I might: get a job speaking the locally different "castellano" spanish, conquer a treacherous Andes mountain, trick a hot girl into dating me, hitchike most of the country and Chile, chase and domesticate for personal transport a llama, become a tango-dancing maestro, celebrate a white christmas on a glacier, snorkel with PENGUINS, seals, maybe whales. A non-dreaming realist expects: Iīll end up dead.
