hello everyone! earlier this week i returned home from fourteen days in south america - argentina and chile. i had the most incredible time and feel as though ive uncovered, for myself, a place that feels like home. and a place i hope to visit often. we started in buenos aires and then traveled allllll the way down to tierra del fuego to catch an expedition cruise which would take us down to cape horn and through the straits of magellan before landing us in punta areanas, chile. from there i headed north to santiago before i headed home.

i did take photos on the trip and i have uploaded them into a gallery which you can view by clicking here. there are some photos i am proud of in the fine art aspect. and as with china, many photos are simply snapshots from my vacation.

i did not do these places justice. in many beautiful places i was simply too awestruck by the beauty to even pick up my camera. or by the culture. i was mesmerized by the whole place. i have never been more ready for a trip. i studied both countries history. i studied the language. i was ready for the food (which, by the way, was AMAZING). i watched every lecture. i listened to every guide (where as in the past i would just put on my ipod). i soaked up everything about these mystical places.

i talked to so many people. somewhere that seemed genuine and pure. i cant explain. i want to see all of latin america. all of it. and one day, i could see myself living there. BA i could move to tomorrow. i think it would only take about a month to completely pick up the language.

anyway, id be happy to discuss more if anyone wants to drop me an email.

i also filmed a little for a little movie id like to put together, but i havent done it yet. stay tuned, hopefully that will come in the next few weeks.

ciao
erin
