Chuck

You know what?! I think I've been unfair to you guys. I've been on this amazing trip for 115 days now and it has been hard in a million ways you couldn't imagine. But most important is has been so much fun. Sure it's fun seing all the places i've been and am going to, but the thing that makes it extra special is the people you meet. And I feel like I've been cutting away that part.

That has come to an end. I'm gonna give you quotes from situations and people I meet. I couldn't count how many crazy people, kind people, hilarious people, people I should stay away from, annoying people, alcoholics, weirdos, toothless people and other people I've met so far.

I can tell you one thing. There no such thing as normal people.


I already told you about my meeting with a man at the bar yesterday afternoon. Lets call him Chuck. I believe a person can only know a fair amont of names before she can't learn anymore. I think I crossed that limit while I still was in Brazil.

Anyways. He was friendly and he (or another friendly man) bought me a beer. So I stayed for a while, to be friendly in return. Then these three women, tanned as motherfuckers, came in. And Chuck said:

"They're a mess, they even make me look less like an alcoholic. Please don't become like them. They've been here every day this week. Mess. And put lotion on your face when you get home. Are your parents rich? Maybe we can get married so that you can travel and I can retire? Does your mum look like you but in my age? Well I think I need to call her. Tell her I said hi. I would take great care of her."
