What should you say to them? Ask Karea.

What should you say to them? Ask Karea.

Karea is one of those dating coaches who you’ve probably never heard of but who your favorite Pick Up Guru knows and respects. He’s currently traveling South America and it was a crazy coincidence that LatinStylez and I met him (He found us by googleing for Colombia Wings and turns out he knows the Pick Up Asia crew). It just goes to show you all the different types of people you can meet when you travel.

Lonely Planet- South America Worth the Purchase!!


This is a useful if flawed guide for backpackers and other budget travelers. This thick book (1,150 Pages) covers lodging, conditions, airports, regulations, and other vital information for 13 countries. The information is practical, useful, and substantial, and one can travel South America with this guide. But in trying to cover 13 countries the book is unavoidably limited on information for any one nation, city, or place, and the maps are at times less than adequate.

There is also some out-of-date information (Argentina’s Peso is NOT equal to one U.S. dollar) so travelers are advised to check other sources. If you will be traveling to only a couple nations in South America you would be better advised to buy a travel guide for each country. However, if you will traverse through many countries in this fascinating continent, this book is still a valuable reference tool.

Border Crossing: Argentina into Paraguay

My trip is winding down pretty soon. It’s been about 5 months out here in Latin America and it’s time to get back home…

It has been one hell of a trip. An adventure the whole way thru. You can plan so much for a trip, but it’s always those strange occurrences that happen that makes traveling such an adrenaline rush… Where will be the next Bolo and Latinstylez adventure? Here’s a hint: somewhere warm, in Asia, beaches, and culture… If you thought Southeast Asia, you guessed right… All subject to change though!

Now back to the border story…. We were in Cordoba, Argentina sad to leave but we had to go… Def would like to spend more time in this city. It has a lot to offer including a young vibrant college aged population. Perfect for sarging :)

This border crossing we hoped would be simple… We had to make a stop in Resistencia before heading to the Paraguay border. We already got our visa. We had to wait in a long line in Buenos Aires to do it, but we did. It also cost us 65 bucks…
