Back to Montevideo to see my gorgeous friends!

Another great visit to Montevideo! Good fun and relaxing too!

So many wonderful friends: Sacha, the 3 Gus's, Maca, Silvana + Fabio, Gaby, Lilian, Ana. I haven't laughed so much since I was last there! Sacha was as fantastic as ever, organising lots of gatherings, dinners, dancing - even whisky tasting! - with everyone I know.

Here are the photos - maybe they're a bit repetitive, unless of course you know or are the people in the photos!

More posts to follow soon:
- International Tango Championships, Buenos Aires
- Feria de los Mataderos - Market with traditional folk music + dancing
- National Reserve: Esteros del Iberá (wildlife park north-east Arg.)
- Jesús Donaire (ex-DCA) is coming to visit me in September!!! (: So there should be loads of photos towards the end of next month!

Some news:
1: I love the Uruguayan friends (especially Sacha!) so much that I'd like to spend October + November there.
2: I'll return to the UK for Christmas on 7 December to see my niece and family + friends.
3: I'll be starting my backpacking tour of South America in February 07! The current plan is the following:
Starting in Calafate (south Arg.) working my way north (2months) along the Andes, then into Chile (1 week) and then spend about 2 months in Bolivia and 2 months in Peru, then on to Ecuador and possibly Venezuela + Colombia if I find someone to join me there, then through Brazil (2 months) and flying back home from Brazil, hopefully having spent carnival 2007 in Salta/Jujuy (Arg.) and 2008 in Bahia (Brazil). Of course I'd love to get up to Mexico and Cuba, but I doubt the savings will cover that. I'll just have to come back!
