al fin
Attacked by 3 dogs (non ferocious, don´t worry) and got rid of an annoying Israeli guy who wouldn´t stop following me and Nathalie around…
well, it´s close to the end of my journey. I´m signing off this journal until I get home. Too many stories, not enough time while I´m here. I´ve become a Tilcareña. The locals know me here, too.
Tonight, there´ll be an asado in my honor (my going away party) thrown by a few locals and Nathalie as well. Will try to hit up El Nuevo Progreso to say my goodbyes to Cachamay, who is there every night, and Tupaq if he is there.
Yup, the end has come. I am completely content with this journey. I have had some of the most amazing experiences ever.
I´ll continue this blog post Sept 3..check back then. Chau.

Marisa,
Have been keeping up occassionally with your travels. Your positive ‘tude and determination shine through the blog. Can’t imagine how you’ll cope with American consumerism after all this?! Probably need to hide for a while upon re-entry to US. Gas is $3 a gallon so all that walking will come in handy…
Safe trip home
Sandy
