As some of you have noticed, I haven't posted in a while. To be honest, I haven't had the motivation. I have entered the phase of my trip which I will refer to as "the grind". This is the time when the newness has faded and the reality of the day to day routine, like it or not, sets in. And things like the waiting and the language barrier start to be annoying. I have a sensation that something has changed in me, similar to what I read in another blog post of two people traveling in South America. And like them, I want to change it back, to enjoy the remainder of my time here in Uruguay.
Plans for the future include travel in Argentina in February with a friend from college before returning to the states at the beginning of March. There isn't enough work here for all of us and I am happy to capitalize on the fact that I am already here and traveling here is something I have wanted to do since working here in 2006. So much work and so little sight-seeing.
I'll be back soon with more...
