Gabriela's Tour Route

Seattle author, Argentine tango teacher, and student of life Gabriela Condrea is tango dancing her way literally around the United States and Canada with boxes of books and a yellow hippopotamus.  By the time she reaches the "finish line" at Chocolati Cafe in Greenwood, Seattle on October 9th, she will have journeyed approximately 17,000 highway miles, visiting more than 60 cities in 36 states, sharing her exploration of connection through her writing and her teaching of tango - Tango is About the Connection - and at Open Mics and Poetry Slams along her route.  The video below explains her project and the events leading up to this US Book & Tango Tour.

Feed the Hippo... please : )

Lauren Nuñez and the crew at the NeoTangoZone Milonga in Northampton, Massachusetts suggested that I make a sign saying "Feed the Hippo."  At the end of the evening, as I put the remaining books in my bag, I noticed a small collection of candy - chocolate kisses and mints kindly set aside for The Yellow Hippopotamus.  Ask and you shall receive.
