As I told you in this post getting a passport in Venezuela can be an expensive and complicated thing. @imabby17 had to go expressly to the main immigration office in Caracas to pay an absurd fine that

Yesterday was another day full of activities (not all of them fun; walking under this weather is exhausting) and we are just one day away from graduation day. I started going back to the optical store,

Yesterday afternoon was another errand-running day. @annaky and I walked to the mall to buy a couple of things at a grocery store and tickets for a movie. Mondays are the best day to go to the movies here

It was a good day, nonetheless. @imabby17's stay in Caracas has been good so far, despite the closed museums The wrong buses, the long walls and bad ice cream. We thought we had learned our lesson after

Today, we got up early and headed to the Saime (Administrative Service of Identification, Migration and Foreigners by its spanish achronym) to have @imabby17's "migration error" corrected. By

Today was the best Sunday in my life! @imabby17 is back, even if just briefly, she is back after six years. I had serious doubts we would meet any time soon because of how expensive it is for us to go

Yesterday, @manujune resumed her treatment and that meant I had to get up in the middle of the night to get her a spot for consultation and treatment. After a year, we have got used to all these steps

One of the wonderful things about Caracas is that, despite being a huge overpopulated and usually chaotic city, it has plenty of parks and green areas for nature lovers. Parque del Este (as people know

Some time ago I posted about this wonderful discovery here in Caracas. Well, I picked up a dozen cachitos and started working on them to give them to @annaky and @imabby17 After 6 years away in Brazil,

Yesterday, we went hiking again. The one legged man (who we have run into a couple of times) had already finished his trail. We are so amazed at people like him. There is also a very old lady with a cane

For a weekend without any particular plans, this one is getting pretty busy. Yesterday, we ended up accompanying @manujune to a rehearsal that was scheduled at a different place at the last minute. She
