We entered Argentina on the 18th of April and went to our first destination Calafate - still very far in the south...

Calafate is the gate to the stunning glacier perito moreno - an unbelieveably big ice hunk 😉 Really awesome is that there are ice rocks cracking loudly all the time and some of them are dropping into the lake - really spectacular.

In Calafate we stayed in Hostel Coehue - it was great fun there. The lamb Leandro was cooking was great (and more than plenty 😉. And for that they serve these nice sugar cane drinks 😉. Jam sessions with Marco and Simon were great! All in all a great time there - thanks guys and girls for that!

A 3 hours bus ride took me to El Chaltén for a day trip - the gateway to the Fitz Roy Massiv. A really beutiful place - especially as I have been that lucky with the beautiful weather.
