I stayed at a hostel last night for the first time in weeks.  The girl in the bunk bed next to mine had a stray kitten that she’s traveling around with.  This morning said kitten woke me up by pouncing on my head.  We’ve since made up and now he’s hanging out on my bed instead.

This afternoon I’m heading to my temporary job on an organic strawberry farm, where I’ll be living with a large family with little kids and 8 other travelers from all over the world.  Either this is going to be a hippy-commune experience or a farm version of The Real World, Argentina.

I won’t have internet at the farm so I’ll have to go take a bike to a coffee shop in town to check my email, facebook, tumblr. I’m actually looking forward to another break from the internet.  I seem to have a lot more fun down here when I limit the amount of time I spend in cyber space.

Also, I just found out there’s a techno festival in the Patagonian mountains in this little hippy town I happen to be in.  It’s eight days long. EIGHT DAYS you guys!  It’s camping and yoga and organic food and techno dancing with a few thousand people from all over the world.   It’s expensive but I’ll find a way.  I simply must! My urban world and hippy world and outdoor world are all about to collide!
