I Made It!

I have been planning this trip forever; it seems like anyways. About a year and a half ago, I realized that I would be able to save enough to do this trip and I knew that after 3 years in Asia, I would want a break. I figured I couldnt go somewhere more different than South America. First I can get by in Spanish -- I can talk to people without completely destroying their language and my own! And, the other biggÿ: (although I loved Asia) you just get more compliments here. I have only been out of the airport for about 3 hours, and have already been hit on by a cute (sober, young) guy -- makes one feel great!

No pictures yet, as at the moment I am in Caracas, and it is a city, I have not seen much to take pictures of yet, unless you count the buskers juggling in the middle of traffic (but I didn't get my camera out in time), but the view as I was flying in today was beautiful, so I can't wait to get out of this city in into the countryside. I think tomorrow I will head to a beach town.

btw -- I apologize for any spelling mistakes, but since the computer is checking for Spanish almost every word is spelt wrong according to the computer!
