I'll be in Brazil this trip (for work), then in January, I'm going to be working in Brazil again for about 4-6 weeks. As soon as I'm done with the project, I'm staying for a month or so and travelling around. I'm planning to see more of Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina, Chile, Peru, possibly the Galapogos Islands, possibly Venezuela, and then end it in Aruba. Haven't finalized anything yet, mostly because I don't know when my real "end date" is on my project, so I'm going to have to be flexible. I will definitely take tons of pictures! But not my cell phone (not that it would work anyway) and not my laptop. Will have to seek out the internet cafes. In which part of South America did you live? Do you have any advice for me?

We are ALL going to be a-ok!
