Happiness

If this picture doesn't make you smile I don't know what will.

Rememdios

Rememdios. Cures. To help you when you are sick, down and out, or angry.

Here I have been given much advice on what to do for various problems. Have a crik in your neck? Just have a prgenant woman bite you there. Hack yourself with a macehete? Stuff cobwebs in the wound. Have your period? Don't shower, and don't eat meat or avocados. Having a bad hairday? It's because you didn't cut your hair under a full moon. Have stomach issues? Fix some really bitter root tea. Have baka presion? Shoot yourself up with a Vitamin B cocktail.

How do I solve my bad hair day? With a straightner. How do I solve a bad day in the pueblo? Or when I get lost in the pueblo? A licuado. Or a Snickers bar. How do I solve digestive issues? Eat lots of oatmeal or a salad. How do I deal with back issues from riding in tuks and sitting on uncomfortable things almost always? Yoga. How do I cope with PMS? Again, a Snickers bar. Or cheeseburgers. How do I cope with boredeom. My site mate, and cheeseburgers.





But cross culturally, I feel like this is true in all cases.
