Review – Intrepid Tour to Galapagos – Days Six to Nine
Previous posts – Pretrip, Days One and Two Days Three, Four and Five So it’s time to wrap up the final stage of the tour. The final three days, plus what they classed as ‘Day Nine’, but really shouldn’t have been counted as part of the tour. As I said before. But anyways, when last …

On the Buses – Bolivia
Howdy all. Back again looking at how it was crossing South America by bus. Last week I looked at Peru and Ecuador, today I continue southward through Bolivia. I expected to write about Bolivia and Argentina together but it turned out there was quite a bit to write about Bolivia on its own, so Argentina …
Accommodation Review – Galapagos
I thought I’d do a quick review of the three hotels I stayed at whilst on the Galapagos Islands. If you’re going there independently there are plenty of accommodation options but you should be warmed that they are pretty pricey all said. There may be the possibility of dorms. I’ll review here by island in …
Pan-America Panorama – Arequipa and Culco Canyon
Yes! The panoramas are back! But I'm not sure how many, if any, I have after this one. Today I look at the ones I snapped in Arequipa, in Peru and around. I took a trip through the mountains to the Culco Canyon as well from Arequipa, although I didn't take a lot of panoramas. …

On the Buses – Ecuador and Peru
If you’re heading to South America for any length of time, you’re going to be spending time on buses. Unless you fly everywhere I guess, but one thing is for sure – it’s not a continent widely connected by rail. Which is certainly disappointing for any rail buffs out there. Like myself. I did get …
Review – Intrepid Tour to Galapagos. Pretrip, Days One & Two
So here it is, a step by step record for anyone who might be interested of my ‘Nine Day’ Intrepid Tour to the Galapagos Islands of Ecuador. I’ve written about this tour before but I really wanted to get down to some details in not quite ‘diary’ style but I wanted to cover it well. …

Post from South America to Australia
I used to love the whole postcard sending thing. It was a cheap way to send a ‘hello’ back home and let people know you’re thinking of them. You’d gone to all the trouble of selecting a postcard, buying a stamp before writing on it and posting it across the oceans. Even when email became …
Accommodation Review – Hostal Los Uros, Puno
Puno seemed like an interesting little place, between Machu Picchu and the Bolivian border. It was just a one night stop over for me on my journey across South America. So, I wanted a cheap bed for the night. I arrived after dark and left early in the morning, so it didn’t need to be …
