This summer has gone by too quickly. I still have till September to enjoy what's left of that which could very well be the last summer vacation of my life. I bought weekend ferry tickets for Uruguay, to tour the cities of Colonia and Montevideo, with a fellow intern. It should be ...
Well, here is where I'd like to explain to you my newfound discovery about traveling.
I thought I loved it. But I don't.
It's exhausting and many times stressful.
It's really not that fun...I mean, all I really enjoy are the hotels and the meals...not the street tours, the architecture, the parks, etc. I only enjoy those things which I could enjoy with equal intensity back at home. Those things which are not unique to foreign locations.
And all I can do is compare things to home...and in developing countries, most of these things don't compare so well.
Other interesting things...
>had a meeting with the head economist at the British embassy in Buenos Aires. he was really cute and witty. i mean, i think he was 40 years old, but i couldnt stop eye-fucking him the entire time. it was fun
>went to a club, got plastered within 2 hours, pretty much got kicked out...was incredibly sick and vomiting...was dropped off at a hostel, where I woke up the next morning...didn't know how the hell I got there
>the bunk above me was rhythmically creaking at 10am that morning. nobody else was in the hostel room. i cleared my throat to let the intrepid masturbator know that he had conscious company. he then looks down and asks me if i'd like to lend a hand.
>met a bunch of korean-argentines in the past few weeks. it's really weird not being able to speak korean or english with some of them cause all they know is spanish.
hahah anthony. your adventures... seriously.
