So a few days ago, I found out from my family that another family friend, who had gotten his green card, lost it because he had been out of the US for too long.

After some research, I found out that I need to physically be in the US for 6 months out of every year. As such, I won´t be able to visit many countries in South America and will come back to the US in November, probably to NYC.

Not sure what I will do when I come back. After traveling for 3 months, it´s hard to imagine living life any other way.

I have met people who have been traveling for more than one year. What an awesome way to live!

With another 3 months to travel, I will visit Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, Peru and Argentina

I lost my laptop and camera this morning and felt pretty shitty all day. Thinking about the travel I have ahead already has made me feel much better

So I spent the last two weeks diving in Utila, Honduras, boading down volcano slope on a homemade wooden board, being a cowboy for a day, riding horses and ox-carts, milking cows, lassoing in Leon, Nicaragua, learning how to surf on the pacific coast of San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua and hiking the baby volcano Madera in Isla Ometepe. Definitely the most action packed two weeks of my trip so far.

I took a lot of great pictures and since I was traveling with 5 other backpackers from UK, Australia and Canada, we traded pictures and awesome videos. I had written my blogs and was just about to update.

Then last night while we were all dead tired from hiking the volcano, someone came into our dorm in the middle of the night and took everyone´s daypacks. Mine had had my laptop and my camera.

All my pictures are gone, but fortunately I still have my passports, credit cards and money.

The people at the hotel were absolutely no help. The Nicaraguan police thought I stole my own laptop and spent half of the time questioning me rather than investigating.

I felt a lot of animosity towards every Nicaraguan I saw after my things were stolen. It could have been any of them. Strange how a little event changed my feeling towards a whole country of people.

I asked Justin, backpacker from the UK, if he felt animosity towards local Nicaraguan too and he said he did as well.

Well tomorrow I leave for Costa Rica, and hopefully I will be able to put this behind me. As they say, it´s water under the bridge.
