I don't have the benefit of writing after the fact. Paul Theroux and his ilk could publish their books after having left the continent. My story participants could knock on my door. The internet is real time and I am shocked at how many people read this drivel.
Here are my notes from my Pixvie trip, I'll flesh them out later.
