Reasons this blog will be significantly less interesting than Easy Peasy Nepalesey:
1. The Chileans believe in plumbing and daily hygienic practices. (adios weekly icy cold bucket showers, welcome flushing toilets and water heaters)
2. Food is eaten at a table with utensils.
3. Chile’s pumas are kittens compared to Nepal’s leopards and tigers (and cobras and malarial mosquitoes).
4. Himalayas > Andes.
5. Although it’s a struggle sometimes, I do consider myself to be at least proficient in the Spanish language…thus eliminating the language barrier and subsequent complications (village sex scandals, for instance).
6. I am generally less interesting (and probably a lot let stressed out) as a person without Allison around to keep me on my toes. By the way, I saw her the night before I left and her summer endeavors include BIKING from Portland, ME to Portland, OR. Typical.
7. Santiago is in the Central Time Zone (no jet lag for me!) and I will have regular access to the glorious creation that is internet. WAHOOOOOO!!
Conclusion: I must act as recklessly as possible to generate interesting blog-worthy material. Chilean drug rings, Patagonia adventure sports, Latino romances, make way!
argh. If you are not going for boring, then please do your best to realize the outcome, before it gets too far out of reach. and if things don't work out, remember to breathe. as I will do the same. Love you.
ReplyDeleteI would say you are off to a good start as you have come up with plenty of material without having done anything yet! As you can see, I'm not exactly reading your posts in the right order!
