Well, hellooo there! To any one who happens to look at this blog :) After a significant absence I thought I might suprise you all by popping up again on livejournal. Hahaha. And from an internet cafe in Argentina of all places. Let's see where do I start: After a horrid busy term I have now left miserable cold England behind for the warmth of the southern hemisphere. I arrived out here on the 9th Dec to join H after his 3 month Rayleigh international expedition (complete with Yeti beard and unwashed hair :0) and we're travelling around South America together until the 28th. So, yes, that would be me spending three weeks, including Christmas, with my ex. Well, sort of ex. We'll be properly broken up as soon as we step off the plane at Heathrow, I promise ;) Nice to know it's possible to stay really good friends with someone you've been going out with...
South America is wonderful - I can't believe it's actually me out here!!! Flew into Santiago. Spent a few days there recovering from the flight. That was the idea at any rate. In fact spent a significant proportion of the time going out in the evening with H's friends from Raleigh. Then across the Andes to Mendoza. They are quite unlike any mountain range I've ever seen before! Then to BA for dancing the Tango and at the moment we're in Bariloche exploring the national parks. I'll be back home for New Year so won't entirely miss out on the celebrations back home. Life is good.
