Welcome, Hikaru! :P

Yeah, the economy here in my country is TERRIBLE. The problem with the dollar create a huge black market, and that black market cover everything in our life. In example, the shops can't obtain dollars from the goverment to buy new things, so they need to obtain the money from the black market. If they need to pay $10.000 to purchase $1.000 for the new things, they the will sell those new things at x10 or x8 too.

To say some numbers. Here with the minimum salary you receive around 40.000 Bs (bolivares) to buy your things, and around 50.000 Bs to buy food. Well, if you want to buy some shoes you need like 60.000 Bs or more, your 40.000 aren't enough. And for food... You can easily use those 60.000 buying food for two or three weeks, and only if you eat two times per day. It's a pain.

In Argentina the last president tried the same thing with the dollar. Fortunately they kicked her out and tried to fix that. However... well, we still have the same goverment with the same stupid laws. I'm hoping to move to Uruguay soon, really hate this place.

Aaaaand... Wow, recently saw some pictures of martabak mani. I want to taste that beautiful thing. T_T It reminds me more or less to the alfajores. But they are little. Try looking in Google "alfajores uruguayos", see the pictures. I love those. :P
