As we were leaving Buenos Aires, I couldn't stop thinking about how much I have come to love the idiosycrsies of Latin America... the bad music guaranteed to be played on buses, the packs of wild dogs in the streets, the diligent dirt watering of the shop keepers, the ability of roosters to live just about anywhere... it's all just so good there. I think it's fair to say that we both loved Latin America. From Mexico to the tip of Argentina, it's an amazing place and we were lucky to see it.
And, another era has ended... Matt turned 30 on Tuesday, and now he's all grown up. Or something.

Happy Late Birthday Matt! Hope you're enoying 30 as much as I am. I was pleasantly surprise with how not-bad 30 is. I am so excited for you two on this part of your journey! Can't wait to read and see all the pics as you travel along.

Feliz Cumpelanos, Mateo.
Wow, what a surprise to read that you are in Europe. I didn't know that part of the plan!!! Yes, Latin America is a special place with special people and you sure lived through so much. Enjoy Europe.
Saludos y un abrazo,

I can't even imagine the emotion involved in leaving a continent you've spent a wonderful year in. I left Mexico after spending a week there, and I gotta say, I'm pretty heartbroken. Lets all go live on a commune somewhere in Latin America. Who's in?! Oh, and happy bday Matt! I know you two are going to have a fantastic time in Europe as well!
