    that´s sad to hear bryan, you should rest up and then get back on the road!

    I´ve had a lump on my foot for a while now and I did some investigating yesterday and after a painful hour, removed a piece of sea urchin that I stood on when we stayed at that beach in baja, its kinda cool i´ve been carryin a piece of that great place around for so long!

    I’m in cuenca, equador and staying here for a while to learn spanish. I might even get a job, they´re some english teaching jobs.

    jo, you should be able to find work when you get here if you need.

    keep the updates coming
