a map and some photos of my slightly unplanned trip around the world. The map outlines the general route I took, not counting the backtracking and double visits. Currently I am scanning some photos of this trip, but be patient, there are a lot of them! Argentina - Chile - Easter Island - French Polynesia - New Zealand - Australia - Bali - Hong Kong - Macau - Singapore

We lost one of our walking companions to an archealogical dig further north but gained Steve and Zena instead for a 25km bike ride around part of the Circuito Chico. The scenery was stunning but unfortunately didn't really come out on the pics, the bikes were a little large for 2 small ladies (I k…

the search for never ending travel companions

Bariloche has a small town feel, is located right at the edge of a lake, and is in the Lake District.  There are many recreational activities with tour agencies based here.  Rafting (level 3) was amazing, and I also broke away from my traveling group to go to Cerro Catedral and rented an …

The road between Neuquen and Bariloche is a beautiful one. The terrain transitions from dusty, well eroded plains (perfect for the preservation and excavation of dinosaur bones) to lush green river valleys crowned with craggy mountains. We arrived in Bariloche around 8pm (because of Argentina´s da…

5 days in Bariloche

Bariloche is situated in the Argentine lake district on the shore of Lake Nahuel Huapi, the largest lake in the district. It is mainly known as a wintersports destination, but this doesn't mean that in summer there is nothing to do, especially in the spectacular surroundings. The town itself …

Well I woke up at 6:30 to find water in my tent. I was smart and put my tent in what seemed like a great location but turned out to be on the downhill of a water runoff. So under my tent was a small lake. It had rained all night and I checked the tent earlier in the night to make sure it was no…

It's up early and on to the truck and off to Argentina and Bariloche. Go through some pretty amazing scenery with mountains and lakes. Get to hostel and head in to town for a bit before heading back to hostel for a wine and cheese evening. One thing leads to another and it gets a little messy. Some…

Few days spent in Bariloche eating chocolate staying warm and dry etc.

More like Switzerland than Switzerland. Fine chocolates galore. Just heavenly. We duck out of the hotel's trough food and had an even tastier steak that we have had before. Six of us cycled the hilly lake tour, often stopping for a wee hike to an even more spectacular viewpoint. Speedy return to m…

Route 40, 35 Hours bus ride to Bariloche Ok, getting on the bus was not as bad as I expected it to be. On a Tuesday it was very rainy, so all I did was stay in the Refugio at El Chalten, just reading a book and listening to my ipod, seating by the window, next to the kitchen hubs to warm up a bit.…
