The Travelers

I have met a wonderful group of travelers in my Buenos Aires Hostel. There is a lovely couple from Scotland, Rachael and James, who have a mere 3 weeks left on their year-long journey. Rachael´s friends Natalie and Alex joined them last week and they are all incredibly fun and charming. Last night they helped me toast my birthday at midnight and tonight we are celebrating with a BBQ at the rooftop terrace of the hostel. They have also insisted I come to Scotland as soon as possible, and if I can manage it somehow that would be in August! There is Verena, a very sweet German girl in my room, and the New Zealand couple Josie and Paul. Somewhere in their 50´s, they are taking 8 months to travel throughout South America and speak barely a word of Spanish. I at times have trouble understanding their English!

My local connection Gabriela, Gaby, is a sweetheart! Thank you JT for putting me touch with her. She referred me to my boutique hostel which is lovely and perfect and cheap! She has taken me out with her friends and shown me the town and I just adore her. Traveling alone isn´t as lonely as I thought!
