The simple but useful things to know: Grocery shopping

The names of your groceries may change in the translation, so how do we call…

Lets start by the personal hygiene while traveling, things you always forget to pack! And they are the things you will need to buy as soon as you land.

Deodorant – Desodorante

Soap – Jabón

Toilet paper – Papel higiénico

Toothbrush – cepillo de dientes

Toothpaste – crema dental

Foot deodorant – talco para píes

Sunscreen – Protector Solar

Dental Floss – Hilo Dental

Panty Pads – Toalla higiénica.

Hopefully this will help you around if you land in a new country, but forgot a few things- the things that are necessary to keep yourself clean during your visit! We will continue with this lesson next week!

Rock 'n' Robots

Remember that Youtube video by Federico Alvarez that we wrote about earlier?

Well, over the weekend Yours truly was on holiday and while channel surfing, this vid popped up on Much Music. Big metal robot aliens attacking Montevideo sort of catches one’s attention, and we soon realized that the Uruguayan rock band, Snake, had worked with Fede and used his video as the backdrop for their song. Here’s a bit about the video, taken from the band’s site:

En Noviembre de 2009 Snake lanza el video clip de la cancií³n “Ataque de Pí¡nico”, el cual a los pocos dí­as y mediante Youtube recorre el mundo y es comentado y promocionado en noticieros y medios de comunicacií³n de Argentina, España, USA, Londres y capta la atencií³n de la opinií³n publica mundial. En Uruguay el video de Ataque de Pí¡nico rí¡pidamente es catalogado como el mejor video clip de la historia del rock nacional.

Vamos, Uruguay!

We’re waiting for the casting call.
