ABOUT ME

Hello everyone! That`s us - Anna and Aga, smiling here at you from Rome:-) We are...well..unique..just like everyone else!:-) We have known each other for 10 years and still think there is nothing better than spending time together. We love meeting new people and they always say it`s fun to be with us too. So, why don't we meet? :-)

In order to make our plans a little bit more clear to all our prospective hosts in South America, we`ve decided to add a brief description of our trip here. We start in Trinidad and Tabago, where we arrive on the 18th of September (9 days from today!!! and we can`t wait ;-). We plan to stay a week or so, however long it takes for Ana to unwind after working tirelessly for years ;-)just enjoying the beautiful beaches and the warm sea. Then we shall take the ferry to Venezuela and after exploring the country for a little while head onwards to see the rest of the continent. We`ve got no strict timetable or an exact list of places to visit. Some points of interest are as fallows:

VENEZUELA: CUMANA, CIUDAD GUYANA, ANGELS FALLS, PUERTO AYACUCHO

COLOMBIA: CARTAGENA, BOGOTA/TUNJA/VILLA DE ELEIVA, CALI, PARK NATIONAL COCUY, LA CIUDAD PERDIDA

ECUADOR: OTAVALO, QUITO, COCA

GALAPAGOS

PERU: CHACHAPOYAS, CHIVAY, CUSCO, LIMA

BOLIVIA: COPACABANA, REYES, MADIDI NATIONAL PARK, UYUNI, LA PLAZ

CHILE: ANTOFAGASTA, MEJILONES, ATACAMA, CURIO, TEMUCO, THE CARRATERA AUSTRAL, PUYUHUAPI, COYHAIQUE, CHACABUCO, PUERTO NATALES

ARGENTYNA: LA GLACIARES NATIONAL PARK, EL CALAFATE, PUERTO MADRYN, MENDOZA, BUENOS AIRES

All in all we plan to travel for at least three months...or half a year...actually, we`d like to travel till the end of time ;-) This trip is a little bit of a breakthrough for both of us. We`ve dreamed of it for so long but there`s always seemed to be something stopping us. Different, small life circumstances have stood our way and it felt impossible to give up all the commitments we`ve had. It literally took us years to realise we are unable to live the so called regular life, with a 9 to 5 regular job. We both gave up our jobs now and are ready for a new beginning. This trip is like the first step we make on a completely different life path...see you on the way ;-)

PHILOSOPHY

Carpe diem!

"All of us can make photographs. But not all of us can watch. Making photographs is an art, only if it containes the art of watching. Watching is an elemental poetic procedure." Martin Martincek

"Far beyond right thinking and wrong thinking, there is a great field. I`ll meet you there. When you lie down in that grass, life is too full to talk about." Rumi

There are more things in heaven and earth, than are dreaned of in philosophy. Shakespeare
