Our Mission Statement

We travel because we found ourselves unsatisfied, the taste of what we were supposed to do had gone sour in our mouths. We wander because we can, because we were no longer comfortable in our comfort zone. We move so that our minds may never turn to stone as we sit and follow orders. We embark because we do not need anything we cannot carry on our backs. We travel to feel the fear of the unknown and the freedom of knowing nothing. We travel to learn, to love, to experience. We Go to taste a little of South America and bite into the unknown.

sickness

Being sick in a foreign country means remembering why the comforts of home are comfortable. It means wishing you had a place to sleep so that you could close your eyes for a couple of days and wake up and feel better. It means knowing you may not find a place to sleep and you might need to take a bus for 13 hours to your next destination. Being sick in a foreign country means you go through every possible scenario in your head of what you might be sick with before you realize its probably not dengay fever.  It means that Gatorade will be your new bestfriend (if you can find it). But mostly falling ill in a Foriegn country means you may need to take a day off and find somewhere to sleep where your not on the ground and surrounded by farm animals.
