About Hospedaje Ortiz
I would like to post here that I had a very bad experience at Hospedaje Ortiz. I was robbed as well as all the people who were staying there and came on the tour that day with the worst guide ever (Levy) who was also recommended by the hostel. In Hospedaje Ortiz we had a very bad experience and I'm trying to alert people by posting this in travel blogs. Thank you for posting and helping other travelers.

Surf's amazing!
Hello Ben, This is Chris Miller's mom writing to let you know how much I enjoy your blog. The photo of the surf was crazy. You must have had a riot with those waves. Got a real chuckle on the "Christ under construction" photos! Stay safe. regards, Sue Miller

Hello Ben, Maggie Fain is my younger sister from the Wolber bunch. It is wonderful to be a part of your travels this way and we are grateful to your folks for sharing. My husband Ned (Edwin Caldwell) has been along your same trail with his parents some 35 years ago. His girlfriend was Canadian and made the trip more romantic (she was ten yrs. his senior like me). Take care, Cousin Pauline and Family in hometown of Indiana University.

Amazing!
Hey Ben... just got a chance to look through some of your pictures/blogging. It looks like you guys are having an awesome time. Keep up with the great photos and entries... you are going to be so glad you have this to look back on one day. Makes me wish I would have done the same while in Europe last summer. Have fun and take care of yourself! :)

Awesome Post
Hey, I wanted to let you know that I really enjoyed reading your blog. My friend and I are going to be in Patagonia at the end of February. Unfortunately, we do not have time to do the entire circuit (not sure we could do it in 6 days!), so we're doing the W. Your blog about the circuit was really helpful in our planning, i.e. what to bring, what to expect, etc. Best of luck with your future travels! Robin Panzer Boulder, CO
