Thanks for the add!
After a year in Buenos Aires, Argentina I’m not living and loving Medellin, Colombia. I’ve followed your site since I stepped foot in South America and would love to swap links.
My updated site should be ready to launch by next week.

From Our Blog:
3 Jun 2010
When I was 20, I took my first steps out into the world of solo travel. I had just spent a month in Spain with a school group, and I was planning on ending my trip with a week in Holland visiting relatives. The week of travel that would take me from Spain to Holland felt like a trapeze stunt–I was released from Salamanca and I went soaring through the air, wildly hoping that I would be caught safe and sound by my relatives. It was terrifying, nerve-wracking, amazing, lonely, and life-changing.
Stephanie Lee parses through that terror in her new e-book The Art of Solo Travel: A Girl’s Guide.
