Learning About A Country On A Drive From The Airport

It’s hard to learn about a culture before you have been there. Everyone usually is curious; what its like, is it going to be dangerous, what you should do, and what you shouldn’t. Being in awkward situations where people can’t understand you is part of the fun! Until of course, something dangerous happens to you […]

Getting Kidnapped (And Shot At) In Caracas, Venezuela

I never like traveling to Venezuela, especially since the country has turned into the red headed step child of South America. For those of you that didn’t know I was born in a small city in the country called Merida, near the border of Colombia. The last time I traveled to Venezuela was when I […]

One of the things about the culture in Chile is that they dont dress up very much and they don’t take extra care of their appearances.  This doesn’t mean that they are dirty or that they don’t shower.  This just means that they don’t dress up like they are going to a night club when they […]

Alpine Slide (Tobaggon) In Bariloche, Argentina

I stumbled onto this Alpine by accident walking back from seeing the chocolate museum (that you really shouldn’t see).  I actually rode the Alpine slide about 3 times because it was so much fun.  The dog that you see in the video actually chased me down the hill on the slide and was extremely playful.
