About this blog

Dear Friends,

This is my travel journal. I will be trapsing rather awkwardly for two months through the lands of South America. I am not bringing much, other than a stoic heart and a healthy appetite. I leave you with only the purest of my adages: "Only through adversity can true moral clarity be achieved." Enjoy.

May we ever prosper,

Alexandro "Gatinho" Eder 15 Junho 2006 A.D.
