Deepest Darkest: The Meaning Of Life

http://travelsindeepestdarkest.blogspot.com/2007/03/meaning-of-life.html

The Meaning Of Life. As most of you are aware - which is really just Wendy - this suburban family of four has returned to its version of suburbia in inner Sydney. I'd like to think that "the adventure" is not over, but at least in the conventional sense it is. Walnut Creek is a fair way from the city and we also managed to go via two of San Francisco's three major bridges, making it a substantial journey. Which is just a round about way of saying we were late. We are extremely lucky to be part of such a ...

Deepest Darkest: January 2007

http://travelsindeepestdarkest.blogspot.com/2007_01_01_archive.html

Like so much of this blog this title is a little old because Holden and I are sitting in the lobby of the Intercontinental Hotel, New Orleans enjoying free wireless internet. Even so, it did apply three days ago as we said goodbye to the people of Pumarmarca, recieving an emotional sendoff by people those we have come to love over the last two months. We have returned from the Inca Trail and are enjoying our last few days in Cusco before we make our way to the US. Working Nine to Five. This weekend we al...

PERUse this: March 2009

http://andes-reenact-mints.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html

Sunday, March 29, 2009. Para la Mama, Con el Amor. I was having a think about moms today and missed you from so far away through admiring those mothers right here. That reminder of missing is everywhere: the bus, Pumamarca, the market, the streets. The eyes of the mothers here are on tired faces but still twinkle when they hold little hands and wipe little tears; in these glances and obvious sacrifices, I see my mom, too.

PERUse this: February 2009

http://andes-reenact-mints.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html

Thursday, February 26, 2009. Viva La Vida: The Wheels (and doors) on the Bus. 160;we do these things. . We walk a lot, and this is wonderful. I breathe in fresh mountain air like it is the water I need to survive, still breathe extra hard going uphill and always, no matter what, have mud caked up to mid-shin. The mountains are too beautiful and the neighborhoods too curious not to walk. Sunday, February 22, 2009. No one really cares they've just been hit; you can say "no, por favor" all you'd like, and i...

PERUse this: What's Also Hidden in the Andes

http://andes-reenact-mints.blogspot.com/2009/06/whats-also-hidden-in-andes.html

Saturday, June 27, 2009. What's Also Hidden in the Andes. My Perusing here has been quite minimized as of late but I still think about the smiles and little hands hidden in the Andes every day. And then, opening up The New York Times. 160;to read stories that make me crazy that people aren't just not. 160;helping but being pro-active against. 160;helping the gorgeous people in these mountains. Here's a story. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. I went to china.

PERUse this: July 2009

http://andes-reenact-mints.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html

Sunday, July 19, 2009. When Birth is A Burden. What if your body isn't healthy or prepared for a baby? Or you work hard while pregnant? Or you can't afford any help while carrying or having the baby? The sad thing is that this has become such an issue that CNN picked it up as a story titled, "Peru Has High Maternal Mortality Rate.". Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. I went to china. Pictures of the year. If you love grammar. When Birth is A Burden.

PERUse this: Melanie

http://andes-reenact-mints.blogspot.com/2009/04/melanie.html

Wednesday, April 22, 2009. I met a girl the other day. We were about 8 years apart, but we weren't that different. She approached me in the plaza as I was reading before Easter festivities, and we spoke in a little bit of Spanish, and then she asked if we could practice her English, which was quite good. . Melanie told me that she was in school to work very hard because she wanted to help "her people." "What do you think of the people here? Do you believe in the God." Yes. "Yes, I love the God ve...You a...

http://andes-reenact-mints.blogspot.com/2009/08/for-perus-sake.html

Sunday, August 30, 2009. Not that anyone wants more of this girl writing, but here are two articles that I have had published about time in Peru:. South American Explorers Magazine: Little Hands. Here is an account of volunteering with Peru's Challenge; it might be similar to earlier posts. Global Journalist: On the Beaten Path. September 2, 2009 at 9:16 PM. MORE writing from this girl! Have you considered a post-peru blogging identity? March 2, 2010 at 12:32 PM. And where are you now? This is my blog.
