Hey ya'll,

I'm currently trying to decide if I'll study abroad in Buenos Aires this coming spring, but I'm having a lot of fears and doubts about accepting. Mostly I'm afraid of my language skills being inadequate, not being able to find my way, having trouble connecting to other students, getting homesick, missing a boyfriend... yikes! I've also never traveled internationally before, so I don't have any of the positive associations that might help mitigate my fears.

Well, I meant to write a pre-departure blog post before I left, but I just didn’t have time. Between computer troubles and having limited internet access, this is the first time I’ve been able to post since arriving.

Preparing for Edinburgh has meant so much to me. This was a lot of firsts —first plane trip, train trip, and first adventure out of the country.  I suppose I like to do things by great leaps.  I was very nervous the first few days before I left, but I saw my friends and…

We return to join our intrepid spaceman spiff as he spirals out of control in an alien world, trying desperately to right his spacecraft as its navigational system is torn out of his hands by a passing gust of wind and swept over central park while he runs desperately low on colones to fuel his voyage to bars and beaches...

So yea, I guess I'll just dive right into this seeing as I already wrote like two pages before which just didn't upload and got lost in the twisting nether... Damn…

So I have been back for almost a week. I was hoping to finish my blog my last few days in BA. However, those days filled up quickly with new friends, good-byes, and last minute gifts.

In my time since my last blog, I have traveled to Peru. I have seen Machu Picchu and Lake Titicaca, but you are going to have to ask me about those adventures in person.

What was my time in Argentina like? How was it? Common questions that I have gotten since I returned to the…

Blog number three... Never thought I'd keep this going!

I've been in Heredia for several days now, although I really can't say the real amount... time is so unimportant in my day to day life.

I guess I'll start with my family because I know mom won't sit still until she knows I'm safe and happy. Answer in a nutshell: I am.

I live in San Pablo, a suburb of Heredia with no one in my house but me and my new Abuelita Silvia. Although one would think this to be a bit awkward…

Alright blog, lets kick this pig.

I just got to Heredia today and I am delighted to say that my casa here has internet… and decent speed at that. TGIF on youtube here I come!

I suppose I should start off from the last time I was writing on this internet thing, a few days ago I think… Time is different here. When last I finished writing, it was raining… and it still is.

Strangely, It is consistently gorgeous from about 6 in the morning when I get up until 2 or 3 in the…

Today is my second day in Liberia and thankfully my host family here has internet. It's from a cable and I have to sit at the kitchen table to write but this is fine because I get to sit next to my host mami while she watches TV. She's watching Star Wars Ep. II - the clone wars and it is the first movie I've seen here that they have dubbed voices. Jar Jar Binks is definitely a new experience with a Spanish accent thrown in the mix...

I'm in Liberia, which es about a 20 minute…
