Steven Roll, of Travel Ojos, just released his first e-book: Celebrating Latin America at Ground Level, a collection of tales from 29 expats and travel writers on just about every imaginable aspect of life in Latin America, from food and drink, to life and love, to family and work and leisure, to getting things done and just hanging around, to speaking (or trying to) to playing and dancing, and most of all, just enjoying this wonderful region, from Mexico to Patagonia.
The e-book is free–just click: Celebrating Latin America at Ground Level to download a copy of your own–absolutely no strings attached!
I was pleased that Steve asked me to participate (my friend and fellow Chile-blogger Eileen from Bearshapedsphere’s there too), and we’re in good company.
