  • Everybody That You Know

    August 6, 2009

    • Not living in Bogotá is going to mean a lot of things.  It is going to mean, first and foremost, not living around mountains.  I know before I leave that I will miss the mountains of Latin America, but I always underestimate how lonely it can feel without them.  Mountains breathe and hold you close in Latin America; they burst up through sidewalks and even in the middle of certain Embassy ...

  • It's pretty funny to see

    It's pretty funny to see where some people think there shouldn't be pauses, especially in pieces meant to be read aloud.  People need a second to breathe!

  • I was actually thinking

    I was actually thinking about doing that.  I know my friends like getting general explanations of things that make the news, but more specific entries would probably be of more interest to this au

  • No Worries!

    When I'm not living here, it's really hard for me to stay as informed as I'd like about Latin American issues while remaining globally and locally informed.  The mainstream media just does not foc
