Howdy all, and Happy New Year! Yes, it’s been a whirlwind and incredibly busy time (just like all the time it seems to be honest) since I set foot back in Australia in early December. I managed one post since then and that was already written pretty much. I’ve been working as much as possible …
Howdy all... here I am, home safe and sound with a cold but I'll be over it sooner or later. I wrote the final post of my trip in a couple of stages, firstly in Rio before I left, and completed it on the flight from Rio homewards, hoping to publish on one of my …
Good day, morning, afternoon or evening wherever you may be from Rio de Janeiro. Yes, I have less than 24 hours left and I am in the city that needs no introduction and has at least 3 famous songs written about it. But before I got here, I went to the falls that split …
I'm in Europe! Wait, no I'm not! I'm in Bariloche, in the lake district somewhere in Northern Patagonia, Argentina. The trip is rapidly coming to a close, in fact I have less than a week before I'm on a plane back to Australia. Five days to be more precise. Tomorrow I head to Iguazu and …
Back for a second helping of Buenos Aires antics, here I am again. For a second blog that is, not for a second visit, it's all been in the one week here. Actually really the first place of note my wife and I visited in Buenos Aires was the El Ateneo bookshop. In a world …

Howdy all. Still going strong with less than two weeks left on this adventure. I made a few changes to my itinerary from this point on. I won't go all the way down to El Calafate. Instead tomorrow I overnight to Bariloche and then fly to Iguazu waterfalls next week. Can't do everything and two …
Hi all. Well, today I leave Salta on an overnight bus to the Argentine capital of Buenos Aires. I've been enjoying a few relaxing days here, I've gone out and seen a bit but really just relaxed in a nice city, very different from any I visited earlier in South America. I've had a …
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.
