. hasta la próxima!

It's all about rock and roll, that's what Spencer said to me before he got in to the taxicab. That's exactly what I learned from him: rocking, rolling, laughing, taking it easy, happiness, patience and good wise jokes. I want to thank his parents for letting me spend these beautiful six months with the company of his great energy and good soul.

. last sleep over

Last night Spencer was here we stayed at his favorite's friend house. They played all day long, laughed, kissed each other and said goodbye. Who knows, may be one day they will find each other again (?)

. north trip!

Trip was awesome. We got sunburned, ate simple things like abocados, bananas, eggs, strawberries and potatoes by the river, had homemade bread and mate almost every morning, splashed into the water, took nice naps in little tiny towns, played with mud, played with other little kidos, climbed mountains, played soccer, saw some llamas and vicuñas along the way (among many other animals), found some dinosaurs bones (see below, don't say it's a doggy one, ok?), told stories, met new nice folks, etc, etc, etc. Here some pics I took along.
