Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. After he graduated from university, the author began an extensive 14,000-kilometer transcontinental odyssey across South America in late 1977. His primary motivation was to secure an international teaching position at an advanced educational institution and a stable income.The initial phase…involved a train journey from Buenos Aires to Mendoza and then crossing the Andes via the Transandino Railway (unfortunately, no longer in existence). In Chile, he experienced the strained political atmosphere under Augusto Pinochet's military regime, where the heavy presence of police enforced a state of compliance. Employment inquiries in the Santiago area yielded no suitable opportunities, leading to the second stage of the journey: a bus trip through the dry Atacama Desert to reach Arica in the far north.The Arica-La Paz Railway climbed the vast Andean plateau to Bolivia and one of its capitals: La Paz. Debilitated by altitude sickness (soroche), he experienced a shocking ethical conflict that arose during an interview for a prestigious math professorship at the local university. His journey then continued to lower altitudes in Cochabamba and Santa Cruz, where there was little prospect of employment. Proceeding eastward, the journey incorporated the notorious Santa Cruz-Puerto Suarez railway, ominously known as the "Train of Death" (o trem da morte in Portuguese) due to its many historical fatalities.Once in Brazil, and after a long train journey from Corumba to Sao Paulo on "o trem da morte", he focused on interviews at premier institutions in Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, and Belo Horizonte. While in Rio, he visited its main sights: Copacabana and Ipanema beaches, Sugar Loaf, and Corcovado mountains.The return trip took him to the internationally famous Iguazu Falls on the Brazil-Argentina border, where his translation skills were in demand from some culturally ignorant and obnoxious tourists.The completion of this odyssey found him back home in Buenos Aires in late January 1978. This adventurous transcontinental experience, encompassing physical endurance and the navigation of cultural and institutional complexities, became a pivotal moment; it shaped his self-confidence and initiated a trajectory toward an international career.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Nalani, Mateo y Aya se embarcan en una mision para descubrir por que las mariposas monarca han desaparecido de su entorno. Al principio, pasean en bicicleta hacia su lugar favorito, pero la falta de mariposas los llena de inquietud. Mientras recorren unl sendero rural, notan que el paisaje h…a cambiado drasticamente: las plantas autoctonas, que antes florecian y atraian a las mariposas, ahora estan marchitas y muertas. Al llegar a una granja, se encuentran con un agricultor que les advierte sobre el uso de herbicidas en los cultivos, lo que aumenta aun mas la alarma de los amigos. Sabiendo que el algodoncillo que las mariposas necesitan para desovar y alimentar a sus orugas, esta en peligro, Nalani habla con el granjero que le manifiesta que a pesar de su preocupacion, se siente atrapado por las exigencias de la empresa que le suministra las semillas, lo que lo obliga a usar compuestos quimicos daninos. Los tres amigos quedan desolados por esta revelacion y sienten una profunda responsabilidad de actuar. Deciden que deben hablar con el guardabosques Fernandez quien podria tener mas informacion sobre la situacion. Con un nuevo sentido de urgencia, se comprometen a encontrar respuestas y buscar soluciones para salvar a las mariposas, entendiendo que su accion podria marcar la diferencia en el ecosistema local. Su valentia y determinacion los llevan a explorar mas alla de su pequena comunidad, enfrentandose a un problema mucho mas grande de lo que habian imaginado. This item is printed on demand.
