We arrived in the town of Puerto Iguazu (there is no port) and decided to stay a while as there was much to see - mostly of the nature reserves and waterfalls. The first day we explored the little town, which surprisingly did not feel touristy despite existing mostly for that reason. In the afternoon Henry bought an Argentinian football shirt and when leaving the shop we bumped into Toke and Line, the Danish couple. We all had a delicious tropical fresh fruit drink together and caught up with a few stories to tell. That evening we went to a newly [View Full Entry]

Iguazu falls

Flew from Rio to Iguazu Falls via Sao Paolo on Saturday morning with TAM. Stopover in Sao Paolo was better than the last one - no delay this time and we could even get off the plane and have a walk around the airport (not that there was much to see). After take off from Sao Paolo you realise the sheer vastness of one of the worlds largest cities. We must have taken upto 20 minutes to hit any countryside. Football grounds, racetracks, motor racing circuits, parks, lakes, swimming pooled mansions, slums, mile after mile of skyscrapers - great timing on [View Full Entry]

When we last updated updated our blog, we were on our way from Rio to Parati, which is a very nice little coastal town between Rio and Sao Paulo. We stayed in Parati for 3 days and coming from Rio it was a nice difference. The streets were still paved with old cobbled stones (brosten) and the houses still had the original colonial feel. Parati is a preferred holiday destination for Brazilians as well, so the town was buzzing with activity. We just enjoyed the more relaxed atmosphere and went for walks and visited nearby beaches, the best one being Praia [View Full Entry]

 South America » Argentina » Misiones » Puerto Iguazú
This will be a quick story, because i think the pictures tell it all! I went up to Puerto Iguazu from BA for a few days to see the world famous, soooo amazing, Iguazu Falls! I stayed at a super fun hostel that had a lot of fun people, a pool, and a foos table! Nice! They even had a barbeque and a brazilian feather lady dance party one night! Awesome! I went to the falls with my roommate John from Canada and we spent and ENTIRE DAY walking around this national park taking pictures and getting soaking wet! WE started [View Full Entry]

hostel entertainment!  need a feather hat like that!
thats me!!!
Why do i want to jump in that!?

Iguazu Falls is an amazing place in the world; we would both put it on the list of our highlights so far, it is truly beautiful. The falls lie on the border of Argentina and Brazil so we spent 2 nights on the Argentinian side and then 1 on the Brazilian side. It has to be said that the Argentinian side is probably the best but they both have very different view points. On the Argentinian side we started by walking on the lower walkway, looking at the falls from above. As soon as they came into sight we kept stopping [View Full Entry]

greetings from senorita raquel :) we are tired, sweaty, and burnt from all the travelling, hot sun, and walking with 40 pounds of gear through the streets of Argentina. I´m still adjusting to everything around me, I´m not sure if I will ever get adjusted as I am continously experiencing something new and different. It makes the trip all the more wild and crazy... just a few things to add to becky´s entry.... in yapayu we met an incredible artist who showed us the abandoned riverbanks of rio uruguay. through the dirt, roots, and old trees, we sifted through old remnants [View Full Entry]

We decided to take a bus journey from Buenos Aires to the Argentinian side of Iguaza falls in order to save some much needed money. The bus was supposed to take 16 hours, however, it took a little longer due to the bus breaking down a few times a long the way- lovely!! Two English guys Matt and Tom that we had met in Buenos Aires travelled with us, though they couldn't stay in our hostel as it was fully booked. Our hostel was very strange, we were located in a little shed to the side of the main building, here [View Full Entry]

Well, thanks for all your patience with getting our blogs posted as well as PICTURES!! It's been a bit more complicated than expected, as everything usually doesn't work out as planned---really. We made it back safely to Buenos Aires after returning from El Calafate and Torres del Paine park. First thing on the agenda was to quickly repack and get to the nearest DHL office so we could ship our backpacks and camping gear back to AK. Let me tell you, this was quite an experience! Again, the young gal didn't speak nearly any English and we needed to get our [View Full Entry]
