They speak English in South America don't they?


Hello and welcome to my blog. Yes I have become one of the many individuals that believes my life is worth sharing with the world and so I have decided to dedicate a page on this interweb thing to myself and what is happening in my life.

Some may say this concept is slightly self-centred, but I figure if you're reading it you must be getting something out of it. Maybe you are a friend or relative and are hoping to see how a 23 year old alcohol enthusiast is getting by on his travels through South America when the only Spanish I can speak is: 'Dos cervezas por favor' and 'donde est el banco?' (at least if I need to find a bank or want some beer i'm ok). Alternatively maybe you are reading this because you dislike me and hope to find out that I have come down with some tropical disease or been bitten by a snake. Either way you are reading this and thus helping to further inflate my ego and make me feel that my life and travels are truly worth sharing with the world.

This blog will be updated at fairly random intervals which will be largely dependent on the internet connection in the town I am in, but I hope you enjoy it and maybe it will give you some ideas of places worth visiting . I leave in 9 days so next time I post I'll be on the other side of the world, so if I don't see you before then I apologise because I am a very busy and popular man.

Miss you Phil! Make sure you don't neglect your duties as my teacher and keep me updated with your new discoveries (with VERY detailed instructions, or course!) xXx
