It all began over a drink. My friend, Mariel, and I were sitting outside on the patio drinking a pint of beer (probably IPAs). It was a chilly fall evening so there were not many people, but we insisted on sitting outside to avoid the loud crowds at the bar. We were discussing how our "gap year" should be epic when Mariel mentioned she wanted to go to South America someday. My response: f*** it... let's go! We drank and shook on it, basically ensuring this fabulous South American adventure.
And so the planning begins. Due to budgetary and time constraints (we both do have some commitments to our lives at home), we settled on Peru and Chile. I look forward to sharing our trip as we make our way to a world so unlike our own to meet people with lives so vastly different from our own. It is sure to be an incredible adventure!
Hasta Luego,
