After coming down from altitude of the salt flats in Bolivia it was quite nice to be arriving into the driest desert in the world and hopefully a bit of warmth after our night at minus 18!! San pedro looked very dusty and touristy but like a very cool place to be with loads of young people around. …

After saying our goodbyes to Argentina we made our way to Chile. The flight was fine and we got to our hotel no problems. It took awhile, however, to get used to the fact that $1000 equals a pound so it seemed like we were spending loads! As we didnt arrive until late afternoon, we just had a …

I've been around the world and I still have many places to visit. But, I hope my pictures will inspire people to go and see some of the things that I have seen.

Viajo América do sul para 6 meses

After experiencing the heat of the Guatemalan Jungle, it seemed like a good time to head South, in this case way south.   So I flew to Santiago, Chile by way of the airport in Panama where you can buy a flat screen TV and any brand of liquor that you might want duty free.   I sk…

Let me just start by saying I hate that this country is so damn cold.  Really, the temperature outside isn't that bad, and being a Boston girl, I'm plenty used to a little shivering.  But the problem here is that it's even colder inside the houses, because, due to the impossibly high ener…

From Iguazu to Buenos Aires, through Patagonia to Ushuaia and tons of places in between!

Aangezien ik op 24 september vanuit Santiago De Chile mijn vlucht naar ´t Paasei-land had, moest ik vanuit Buenos Aires onmiddellijk naar Santiago gaan. Veel heb ik daar in die ene middag niet gedaan. Maar hierbij vind je wat foto´s die ik nam tijdens de busrit. Het was (alweer eens) adembenemend…

This is a Desert town in the north of Chile near Arica. What I liked about it was the cemetery in the desert.

The border crossing must be one of the strangest with the exit from Bolivia at the end of the Uyuni tour, but a 30 minute drive to San Pedro to get an entry stamp into Chile prompting questions about who owns the vast gap.  My hunch was it must be Chile as for the 1st time on the trip we were …
