Memory of Latin America

[gerbie]

Last month I made a trip to a part of Latin America. I started my journey in Montevideo, Uruguay, then continued travelling via Colonia and Paysandu to Argentina, where I visited Santa Fe, Rosario and Buenos Aires before flying south to Ushaia and Calefate. Back north from Bariloche I crossed the Andes into Chile, where I visited Valdivia, Valparaiso and Santiago.

It took me just about a month to do so. I wrote a little story in my LJ, nearly every day, though some days twice. Just for those of you who were away as well in August. Or for those who have missed some or all of these stories. Perhaps some of you even want to reread them. The rest of you can ignore this post.

I already added your travelogue to my friendslist, please do feel free to do so, though I'm not sure when my next travel stories will appear.

I do assume you can cope in Dutch as well then, with your Dutch blood and your travel experience?

Thanks ... I've just added you. All of my travel stuff these days is only in my main pitamakan journal, however ... the traveler_mark LJ is just a repository for old travelogues that mostly predate my LJ. But feel free to look at or add either journal.

The main LJ has my stories from this year's trip to Uruguay, Brazil, Paraguay, and Argentina ... you can look at the entries from April 27 to May 11 for that. There's also a fair amount of other travel stuff in there from the last year or so.

Dutch? het spijt me ... nee. I know almost none of it. My great-grandparents emigrated to the US nearly a century ago, and they died before I was born. No one in my family can speak the language now ... and I'm afraid I've never felt the need to learn, since the Dutch readily speak English better than most Americans can. :)

I'll have a look at those entries in your regular LJ as well then. Saw some great pictures already in your recent entries, I'm very jealous, as I am a crap photographer myself.
