Bussing it in Central America
Toilettes in Central America
I´m sure those that have traveled in Europe and Asia have encountered the toilettes that are just holes in the ground with ceramic to stand on. The surprising thing here in Central America is that so far, I have not encountered those toilettes anywhere. What is common here is that you can´t put the toilette paper in the toilette...you must put it in the trash can because more than likely there are cracked pipes along the way and the paper could get caught and build up. This sign however is the only time I´ve seen such instructions for flushing. Unfortunately, due to clogging the sink at my apartment the day I was moving out, I discovered this technique. It was a fun, educational find for me! :)

Mapping my progress
View Larger Map
I hear that people keep wondering where I am as I can't update my blog as often as I'd like but what I can find time to do is keep the map of where I'm going and where I've been fairly up-to-date. So, you can check out my google map link in the list of links on my blog.

Belikin Beer

I took the opportunity of drinking Belize's beer to test out my handy-dandy Swiss Army knife. It worked wonders! I was pleasantly surprised by how good the Belikin beer is. One could even call it pretty good. I'm definitely surprised that the national beer is good...at least from the comparison to the "national" American beers.

The Power of the Consumer: Carrot Mob
This is a great demonstration of how we can put our over-used power of the consumer to good use.

Wall-e
Come on people...really...you can't in the first 2 minutes of the movie get the theme of the movie?? I saw Wall-e the other day and was struck by the strong message in the movie that was for me blatant in the first 2 minutes. What has baffled me is how no one (in the mass media) is talking about this and how the message seems to escape a lot of people. So, I write this post so that anyone planning to go see Wall-e will know to look for a message about our current path on Earth in the first 2 minutes. If you are not sure what it is by the end of the movie, please contact me and I'll explain then.

A new phase
Alright, while I had mostly been a tourist in the places I had been living, I have now returned back to the US and Austin where I lived previously and so am quite familiar with it. That being said, Austin has changed a lot in the past couple of years, so now the blog is going to focus on exploring these new things of Austin and also information worth sharing as I prepare for my year off, volunteer, and travel around the world.
