馃崉Exploring the forest of my city with rich grass馃崉
Buen domingo amigos de Hive!! Hace bastante que no estoy por aqu铆, pero es como que necesito escribir cada tanto, pues es mi mejor forma de expresar mis sentimientos y mis experiencias.
Hoy vengo a contarles la primer parte de la expedici贸n al bosque de mi ciudad con mi querido amigo RAMA, mi mejor amigo y con quien tengo las mejores aventuras y locuras!! 脡l es mi 2 como dicen en Uruguay, y todas las ideas locas que se me ocurren, 茅l me sigue y apoya. Y viceversa tambi茅n, creo que esa locura es la que nos une y me pone muy feliz que as铆 sea!! Le agradezco al Universo tenerlo como amigo... no todos pueden tener un RAMA en sus vidas y yo si!! Soy muy afortunada!!
Good Sunday friends of Hive!! It's been a long time since I've been here, but it's like I need to write from time to time, because it's my best way to express my feelings and my experiences.
Today I come to tell you about the first part of the expedition to the forest of my city with my dear friend RAMA, my best friend and with whom I have the best adventures and craziness!! He is my 2 as they say in Uruguay, and all the crazy ideas that occur to me, he follows me and supports me. And vice versa too, I think that madness is what unites us and makes me very happy that it is so!! I thank the Universe for having him as a friend... not everyone can have a RAMA in their lives and I can!! I'm very fortunate!!
No pod铆amos hacer esta aventura sin un poco de hierba. Asique para adentrarnos al bosque bien locos, decidimos prepararnos un Blunt de Blueberry con mucha marihuana de la buena.
Arriba vieron c贸mo qued贸!! Una vela literal...
We couldn't do this adventure without some grass. So to go into the forest very crazy, we decided to prepare a Blueberry Blunt with a lot of good marijuana.
Above they saw how it turned out!! A literal candle...
Sin m谩s vueltas, y antes que el sol bajara, emprendimos viaje campo adentro. Hac铆a fr铆o, hab铆a viento, pero el sol acompa帽aba estupendamente bien con nuestra energ铆a. Sab铆amos que encontrar铆amos hongos de todas clases, pero est谩bamos buscando uno en particular que crece en esta zona. La Amanita Muscaria.
Without further ado, and before the sun went down, we set out on a journey into the countryside. It was cold, there was wind, but the sun was great with our energy. We knew that we would find mushrooms of all kinds, but we were looking for one in particular that grows in this area. The Amanita Muscaria.
La belleza del campo, ese olor a tierra, a verde, me encanta!! Extra帽o mucho vivir en el bosque de pinos y acacias en Uruguay. Extra帽o despertarme y ver el sol del amanecer en el patio de mi casa, y ver a mis mascotas jugar libremente. S茅 que pronto lograr茅 salir de mis deudas y podr茅 darles un lugar mejor, tanto a ellos como a m铆 tambi茅n! Y si ese lugar es en el campo, mientras el Wifi llegue para trabajar... pues ser铆a muy feliz!!
The beauty of the countryside, that smell of earth, green, I love it! I really miss living in the pine and acacia forest in Uruguay. I miss waking up and seeing the sunrise in my backyard, and seeing my pets playing freely. I know that soon I will be able to get out of my debts and I will be able to give them a better place, both for them and for me too! And if that place is in the countryside, as long as the Wi-Fi arrives to work... then I would be very happy!
Con Rama somos muy buenos amigos desde hace muchos a帽os. Hay una confianza que traspasa el esp铆ritu de cada uno y sabemos la fidelidad del otro. Eso no lo encontr茅 en otras personas, porque generalmente siempre hay otros intereses de por medio. Aqu铆 nuestra relaci贸n se forj贸 sin intereses ni prejuicios, sino de un cari帽o puro y aut茅ntico. Amo a mi amigo a toda su familia, Ely su mujer que es una genia y sus dos peques: Jacqueline y Milo, dos bombones de su t铆a Mimi!!
With Rama we have been very good friends for many years. There is a trust that crosses the spirit of each one and we know the fidelity of the other. I did not find that in other people, because generally there are always other interests involved. Here our relationship was forged without interests or prejudices, but of a pure and authentic affection. I love my friend and his whole family, Ely his wife who is a genius and their two little ones: Jacqueline and Milo, two sweeties from their aunt Mimi!!
El bosque ten铆a una gran capa de pinocha lo cual dificultaba saber si debajo estaban creciendo los hongos que busc谩bamos. Lo que tuvimos que tomar unas ramas ca铆das secas para correr un poco esta pinocha y poder ver y buscar con m谩s cautela.
Estos bosques son linderos a un balneario muy conocido de la ciudad, y ya muchos han encontrado en esta zona la variedad de la Amanita Muscaria. Asique no perdemos la fe de que el Universo nos gu铆e por el camino de la luz para encontrarlos.
The forest had a large layer of pine needles which made it difficult to know if the fungi we were looking for were growing underneath. What we had to do was take some dry fallen branches to move this pine needle a little and be able to see and search more cautiously.
These forests are adjacent to a well-known spa in the city, and many have already found the Amanita Muscaria variety in this area. So we do not lose faith that the Universe guides us along the path of light to find them.
Como podr谩n apreciar, encontramos hongos, y les prometo que ir茅 investigando y cont谩ndoles sobre cada uno a medida que pueda. Para que entre todos podamos aprender cu谩les son t贸xicos, cu谩les comestibles y cu谩les alucin贸genos.
As you can see, we found mushrooms, and I promise I'll be researching and telling you about each one as I can. So that together we can learn which are toxic, which are edible and which are hallucinogens.
Amo los pinos, y amo meterme a explorar dentro, amo los aromas y las formas y colores de los hongos que aparercen. Amo sentir las pi帽as crujir bajo mis pies... amo la energ铆a que emana el bosque, es como si fuera m谩gico, de otra dimensi贸n, con seres que no se dejan ver, pero si sentir!
I love the pines, and I love exploring inside, I love the aromas and the shapes and colors of the mushrooms that appear. I love feeling the pineapples crunching under my feet... I love the energy that the forest emanates, it's as if it were magical, from another dimension, with beings that can't be seen, but can be felt!
Cansados de caminar, y ya de regreso hacia el coche, vimos a lo lejos un sombrero rojo. Salimos los dos corriendo a ver y si, efectivamente era una Amanita Muscaria!! Qu茅 emoci贸n que ten铆amos, salt谩bamos de la alegr铆a y no par谩bamos de sacarle fotos con nuestros tel茅fonos!! Era un hongo perfecto. Les prometo que har茅 un post con la segunda ida al bosque y toda la informaci贸n necesaria para consumirlos. Y luego claro, les contar茅 nuestra experiencia comi茅ndolos!!
Tired of walking, and on our way back to the car, we saw a red hat in the distance. We both ran out to see and yes, it was indeed an Amanita Muscaria!! What emotion we had, we jumped for joy and we did not stop taking pictures with our phones!! It was a perfect mushroom. I promise you that I will make a post with the second trip to the forest and all the necessary information to consume them. And then of course, I will tell you about our experience eating them!!

Arriba tambi茅n les dej茅 un video corto de una parte del bosque donde hay mucha vegetaci贸n, lianas, musgo, 谩rboles de todo tipo y un microclima hermoso y propicio para esa vegetaci贸n tupida.
El video y las fotos los tom茅 con mi Samsung A01. Espero les haya gustado amigos!! Y esperen a mis pr贸ximos post... Buen fin de semana para todos!!
Above I also left you a short video of a part of the forest where there is a lot of vegetation, lianas, moss, trees of all kinds and a beautiful microclimate conducive to that dense vegetation.
