I am a cantankerous terrible person to travel with, but somehow Alex managed to put up with me for a whole week as we soldiered through El Salvador visiting hotels and chatting up the locals. She got to eat her first shrimp ceviche on the black sand pacific coast, ate pupusas which I am pretty sure gave both of us 'funny tummy,' survived the wild streets of Santa Ana, and tried mango with hot sauce all over it while drinking cocktails on the sidewalks of Juayua. Anyhow Alex knows how to appreciate all the things that make traveling great and even managed to take the piss out of me a couple times. That's all I can ask for out of life, sassy friends, good mojitos, and a nice sunset.
