Finally in Buenos Aires

Wednesday, May 30th, 2007

Hey you all, I just wanted to say that I made it to Argentina in one piece.
It took me 41.5 hours from my hotel in Hong Kong to my sister´s place in Buenos Aires, but now I´m here ready to start enjoying my own continent. It´s pretty weird to be able to speak to anyone I want and I still haven´t adapt to that.

Now it´s bed time, hopefully 16 hours straight….

SAI

BYE BYE ASIA

Monday, May 28th, 2007

Hi guys, I know you haven’t heard anything from Shanghai or Hong Kong yet (both absolutely amazing) but this is more important.

Tomorrow I’m leaving Asia. I’ve spend 7 month here and I have learned and enjoyed so much that’s it’s gonna be sad. On the other hand I’m heading to South America, my beloved continent so it’s also good :).

Tomorrow I’ll fly: Hong Kong – Kuala Lumpur – Johannesburg – Cape Town – Buenos Aires.

I’ll take me around 35 hours, 4 airports and many plastic meals.

wish me good luck and talk to you from the New World!!

besos
