Was He Married?

Well, this place doesn't have much to do with South America (except that I hear the continent is desert-like for a beer-lover . . . bloody hell, what am I going to do?). A house made out of beer cans . . . do-it-yourselfers around the world salivate at the thought of accomplishing something like this. Maybe he drank all that beer to make living in Houston more bearable.

The most commonly asked question heard at this place: did he drink all of that himself?

The second most commonly heard question: was he married?

Stay Healthy!

Take some shots, keep yourself healthy! Of course, these aren't going to keep you healthy . . . but they'll help. And let me get to the first task at hand when we get there - getting the turistas out of the way so I can eat my fill of cuy, capybara, y ceviche without hesitation. (Maternal disclaimer - I'll leave the furry little succulent guinea pigs to the natives, Mom).

Brazil - TAM Airlines Deals

TAM Airlines has a South American travel deal where you can travel to different countries - I am a bit confused by the details of how it works, but from what I've heard from South American travellers, it is a good deal to buy airline tickets from outside of the country (or continent) you are travelling in.

TAM also has an internal deal that looks pretty good, too.
