After a year spent in South America, a sailboat took me across the Caribbean Sea to Panama and I continued hitchhiking to Costa Rica. I quickly crossed Nicaragua, Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala to meet with a friend in Mexico City and Oaxaca. Instead of heading north , I decided to make a U-turn and spend a few more months in Argentina . Then I came back to Central America by hitchhiking a ferry. I was limited in time again because I had to meet with my parents in Canada . I hurried up to reach Mexico where I visited the Chiapas region and Mexico City. I crossed the impressive fenced border of Juarez. After a total of three months in Central America, my hitchhiking  world tour continued in the United States .
