My First Encounter with an Argentine Con Artist Today, glorious Friday. I only had a few pesos on me so Julieta (a girl I work with) and I decided to go get a sandwich. As we turn the corner something organish-brown catches my eye. To my horror, a dog is lying on the street – […]
THE ARGENTINE PINOCCHIO
One must be careful upon close contact because you could lose an eye in simple conversation with this Argentine. As he moved his nasal appendage you could feel the wind change direction. This I tell you was great because it was a bit nippy on the boat. So for you who do not believe in […]

Where You Should Go If You Can’t Afford Antarctica
Its a dream to make it to the white continent but with prices starting off at $3,000 its no wonder why only about 37,000 people made it to Antarctica last year. It is by no means a cheap adventure and that doesn’t include the costs of getting to the port where you leave. Last minute […]

THE TERMINATOR – PARAGUAY
Not many people go to Paraguay and the main is reason is because the country is overlooked with the likes of Argentina, Peru, and even Brazil. First I would like you to guess what the vehicle was carrying. Rice. Why would you need so much security for rice? I honestly dont know because I was […]
GIANT CHESS AT THE FESTIVAL OF LAUGHS
Canada in the summer turns into the land of festivals and Montreal in particular. I use to love playing chess while I was younger and to find this was a welcomed surprise. I was invited to Montreal by Todd & Lauren from Globetrooper and got to meet up with Dave & Deb from ThePlanetD, we […]
Interacting With Penguins In Antarctica
Everyone loves Penguins and anyone who doesn’t is just weird :P. One of the main reasons that people go to the great white continent is to see them and interact with them. The location was Deception Bay which is part of the South Shetland Islands. One of the things that you can be sure about […]
