First post, New trip!

First Post!

I've always been pretty big into blogs. After much procrastination and a busy period, here I am, with my first post. 
This has been an interesting year; it started with an extended trip to Southeast Asia and is ending with an extended trip to South America with some work experience in between. 
I'll keep everyone updated on my latest happenings and whereabouts in the southern continent! 
The scenario itself is asking for adventure:
A male traveling solo to South America for 75 days with no friends for thousands of miles and no set plans. Colombia? Brazil? Venezuela? Patagonia? Anything and everything will happen. 
And oh yeah, my Spanish is next to horrible. I'll either sink or float in the emerged atmosphere. 
Whatever happens, I want to spend the most time in the most politically and socially volatile areas; no better way to experience a different country then during a period of social upheaval (provided there is no American lynch mob!) Venezuela is very expensive so I'll probably head to Bolivia. 
But we'll see. Its all up in the air!
