Yerba Mate mates!

Hola!

After a long flight from Argentina and a bus trip from Syd to the 'berra I am finally back home! Mentally and physically I am still a bit tired but I am back at uni and getting back to work.

To kick off this post-holiday post I have to make reference to my new Yerba Mate mate, Michael. Michael and I share an office at uni. I brought him back a Guampa (Paraguayan tea cup), Bombilla (steel straw) and a big packet of Yerba Mate tea so now as we each delve into our research we do so sipping exquisite herbal tea! Oh the joys of pre modern research! Also Michael has just made himself a blog, Churchmainia, so keep an eye on it as he will no doubt be putting up lots of stuff on his research, his cartoons and his fondness for native NZ giraffes in their natural habitats, see here.

Will upload some pictures from Sth America along with some thoughts and impressions over the next few days.

Ciao,

D.

yo, zinho.

My patas are killing me, while the Argentinean version of Big Brother (Gran Hermano) is all excited with the presence of this Brazilian blond who came to Argentina as "cultural exchange" from Brazilian Big Brother. What is this thing with Reality TVs, could someone please explain it to me in simple words so this old style brain can understand what is going on, ah?

I like the giraffe, very attractive by the way:-). I think I am going to take few Kurupi-s (hehehehehehe) with me to Australia... Arriba the Paraguayan mythology, hahahaha!

xo, Pucca
