Good-bye Lists

Random Things I'll Miss About Travelling

• Having my To Do list be: shower, ATM, blog, buy snacks for bus
• Greeting and saying good-bye to people with kisses
• Hanging out with folks under thirty (wer're not so different after all)
• Cheap beer
• Sunshine
• In Brazil: Pao de quiejo (cheese bread), all the hot men!
• In Argentina: empanadas, dulce de leche, alfajores, being called "amor" and "corazon" even by strangers
• Never knowing what book I'll read next because I don't know what book I'll be able to exchange mine for
• Starting a conversation with anyone with "where are you from?"
• Incongruous Scenes- Like hanging out with two Italians, a Brazilian, 2 Germans in Brazil, speaking Spanish
