Okay, okay, okay. We know, we get it. It has been over a month since we last updated our happy little blog here, and we can just imagine what you all might be thinking. Where are those guys? What have they been doing? Are they going to share the rest of their stories? How does it end??? As many of our loyal fans know, Aman and I made it back to New York a little over a month ago after our year-long odyssey around the world came to an inevitable conclusion. Between reuniting with friends and family for the holidays (awesome), finding an apartment in which to live for the next few months (not so much), looting our storage unit for some essential and immediately needed personal belongings (e.g., warm jackets and suits to wear on job interviews), looking for new jobs, and getting back in the New York Groove, it has been quite the eventful month. So eventful that we have barely had time to even think about updating the blog with riveting stories about the final months of our incredible year abroad. Except when someone directly asks us about it, of course... And then, there was also the other day when I was organizing my "scrap" collection from our trip -- a full drawer, more or less, full of city walking maps, museum floor plans, ticket stubs, half-torn boarding passes, tiny slips of paper from a couple of fortune cookies that we ate in a Peruvian Chinatown restaurant (one of which ironically advised us: ya es tiempo que te tomes tu merecido descanso; translation: it is time that you take your well-deserved break) and the like. If you are wondering what in hell I intend to do with all of these useless items, well, you just might be Aman. But, as I have explained to Aman in response to his concerns that I am developing a hoarding disorder, I will think of something and it will be really good. Back to the point, I was organizing all of these priceless little bits of nostalgia the other day, when I was hit by the inspiration I needed to sit down and finish our story. Because seriously, the beginning of our trip was amazing and all, but the end was just as incredible. And we have some good stories left to share. Stay tuned folks...
