Howdy all from Bolivia for the last time. This trip at least. I've just returned to Uyuni after a three-day trip to the Salar De Uyuni, so I'm going to try and give you a brief run down of how it went. In Uyuni there are loads of operators offering trips to the salt plains. …
Howdy all. My last night here in Sucre, southern-ish part of Bolivia. I've stayed three nights and would you believe this is my first three night stay since my first stay in Quito. It's been crazy and tiring and rewarding as well. Sucre is the nicest city I've been to in Bolivia. Well, I've only …
Potosi is not a bad place really, surrounded by stunning, rocky mountains with a nice centre of town (I've found this is common in every South American city/town I've visited) but Potosi's fame comes from the minerals and metals found inside the surounding hills, that brought and still brings wealth to the people. The …
No, I'm not in Brazil. Yet. I'm here in the delightful little town of Copacabana on the shores of Lake Titicaca, in Bolivia around 8-10 km from the Peruvian border. I've had three days of sunshine, and a great chance to relax a little. Why, today I even slept in! There's not an awful lot …

Did I call my last Ecuador blog something similar? Anyways, a few hours ago I passed the border into Bolivia and am now in my third country of this South American adventure. I'm in Copacabana - not the one of Brazillian fame rather the one on Lake Titicaca just over the border into Bolivia from …
Yes, that's right, I made it to Machu Picchu. One of the seven wonders of the world, Peru and probably South America's greatest tourist attraction, I made my way here. Bucket List Item - cross it off! So... What did I think of it then? What's it like? Well. I am well aware of just …
Howdy all. I've around an hour before I need to leave for my bus to Cusco, so I thought I'd quickly bash out a blog entry so that I leave Arequipa up to date. Arequipa is a pretty pleasant town all said with two major attractions, the Santa Catalina Monastery, and the mumified remains of …
Hello from Lima. But my journey into Peru will be the subject of another blog post. Today I want to share a very little about my time in my last stop in Ecuador. Yes, I've left this amazing country for another. Gees it sounds so sordid when I put it like that! But my last …
Howdy all. I have just arrived in the southern Ecuadorian city of Cuenca. I'm moving fast at the moment, frankly a little too fast but this is what happens when you have dates lockedd in further down the track (Macchu Picchu soecifically). Riobamba was an interesting place. Not unpleasant, lots of squares and interesting buildings. …
Howdy all. The tour has finished and I am back on the road alone, in the town of Riobamba tonight. It's a nice place, very lively with young people right now. It is Friday night after all! From the last time I wrote I've taken a very bumpy ride on a speed boat to San …
