On the Road again!

So here I am again…a pregnant hamster on the road. One backpack on my back, another one in front…for balance. 22lb behind, 11lb in front….almost one third of my weight. That’s right; my current weight of January 9th is exactly 99lb. As it might sound terrified to some people out there who beg the scale to show the little number, I’m gonna beg the empanadas, the arepas and the pao de queijo to do the opposite trick.

I'll tell you something. Packing skills do magic, kids. Not like real magic-magic…like Hermione with her magic handbag, but normal human being packing skills. Oh, and by the way, I adore Amazon.com. I didn’t have to go through this torture of shopping for most needed essentials for the trip. Have you ever packed for a 6-months worth of trip?.. My little pumpkin-colored 45L backpack is stuffed…seriously stuffed. I already regretted million times taking so much crap with me, but God bless my shoulders and my legs.
