Side note on visiting me/traveling around
So this post is mainly for my sister or anyone else who is interested in visiting me while i'm here. Guyana is the black hole of travel. Getting to guyana from the states and vice versa is relatively cheap and easy, so i definitely encourage anyone who wants to visit me here in country. However, even though Guyana is in South America, it is next to impossible to get anywhere outside of guyana. Travel to Brazil is ridiculously expensive, even though they share a border and it is actually cheaper and easier to fly back to the states and then go to Brazil. So unfortunately, I dont think i will be able to go anywhere in South America while im here. Sorry JP :( However, there is some good news here. Travel from Guyana to the Caribbean, places like Trinidad and Barbados, is pretty cheap and easy. Soooooooo, i was thinking that anyone who wants to visit but doesnt have the stomach for rabid mosquitoes and iguana curry may want to plan a trip to the Bahamas instead and I would meet you there. Just a thought :) I may plan a trip to Barbados or someplace for next year if anyone is interested......:)

Hey Linds!
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited to hear about your host family and the "life" there. I love how your host "dad" is my age with 2 kids! Does your host mom cook for you every day? I'm sure the food is delicious.....although you know how I feel about curry...hehe!
I'm totally coming to visit, and stopping by in the Caribbean as well would be cool! I'd be down to meet you in the Caribbean then head back to Guyana for a while. You know I love those rabid mosquitoes! I'm so there!
Hey Lindsay-
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like an awesome experience for you. Will you fix us iguana stew when you get back? Where do you buy iguana in the states anyway?
Wow! You may be coming home at Thanksgiving or Xmas. We'll try to hook up with you in Penn. then. As far as coming to Guyana, we'll consider it.
Thanks for writing this blog. It is great fun to read. Hopefully you will be able to post pictures too.
Keep us in the loop.
Wow sounds amazing. Keep me updated and maybe I can swing a trip to islands. :)
