e!
There´s always something else to learn...

I went hiking yesterday with Andres, one of my best friends and a person that I appreciate a lot, I would love to say that I took him to the volcano (because he’s from Guatemala and he came to visit) but to be honest, HE took ME hiking, he’s the expert (he’s been to the Kilimanjaro and going to Mont Blanc soon).

The trip started on Thursday, he arrived at around 1230 and I took him to Faisça do Brasil, a restaurant that (even for a person who doesn’t like meet, like me) is a most when you are in San Salvador. The funny thing is that when I saw Andres in Guatemala about a month ago, I told him he was a little bit over weight, but just a little bit, so he’s been on diet ever since hahahaha! But we ate so much!!!!!

Then we hit the road. We went to San Blas, La Libertad (http://www.puertolalibertad.com/), and even though I spend most of my vacation days in there, with Andres in there, everything seemed different. We went to El Tunco, we saw people surfing, smoking pot and drinking/taking “sun in a can” (tomando sol en lata). We wanted to party that night but something better happened. We sat there facing the ocean and we talked, and then we enjoyed each other silence. Because that’s the thing, we can talk to each other, we know what is right and wrong about each other but we don’t judge. Because our friendship is based on the respect that we have for each other.

We went back at around 8 or 9. Yesterday, we woke up at around 9 am, took a shower and headed to Izalco. We climbed it, we came back, we climbed the Cerro Verde, we took millions of pictures, we ate sandwiches and pupusas (first the sandwiches and later, the pupusas) and suddenly it was over. We were at my house again, burning CDs with each other pictures and he went back to Guate.

Pictures coming soon (hopefully)
