Classic Peruvian Ceviche
[13 Feb 2012 | 3 Comments | ]
Classic Peruvian Ceviche

YUM!
When  you go to Peru, you definitely need to taste the Peruvian ceviche. For the Peruvians, ceviche  is so important that it is considered part of Peru’s “national heritage”.
But, what makes the peruvian ceviche unique from the others?
Most South America countries have their own national ceviche recipes, but no recipe is more recognized than the Peruvian version. Why? Not sure, but some say that is the combination of the right ingredients, other people say  it’s the style, and even others boast the it’s local fish that make the all the difference.  But …

14 Beers & Feeling Tipsy

14 Beers & Feeling Tipsy

Sampled Beers of Latin America
Well, I’m not normally a beer drinker, but as we’ve traveled, I’ve made it a point to sample a beer from every country we’ve been to. So, I’m going to share with you what those beers are. I am not really qualified to review the beers either sine I do not drink beer all that often, but I’ve included with a link for most the beers to a proper review. Just click on the name of the beer, incase you are interested. The remarkable thing is, …

Lack of fat people
[28 Mar 2011 | 8 Comments | ]
Lack of fat people

Written by Miro:
No Obese People in Manizales?
We were just in Manizales, And I was astounded to see huge numbers of sweet snacks
(My favorite is the brownie, which I am sure has tons of sugar) .

I was even more astounded that there were little to no obese people.
I walked down street and I saw no obese people in sight. Why is this? There has to be at least 30 sweets and candy stores, quite a few fast food restaurants and no obese people to be found? Why? Maybe because half of the population is elderly, but
this probably …

My Crazy Dream- Influenced by Colombian Food?

Written by Miro:
A few days ago I had a crazy dream.
It started like this:
My mom and I got off some sort of train, and then a Giant Rainbow bird, that sprouts balloons attacked me. I waved my arms frantically, and the bird flew away. Then, some guy shows up and I follow him.

We go to an empanada store, and I thought we were going to buy something, so I *Accidentally* Pocket 2 of them.
And then we keep walking.
Eventually I lost the guy I was following and I found myself composing a marching band.
Then, I randomly …
