We made a special edision blog for all our viewers and it consists of all photos. We have gotten a little lazy of writing and though that our pictures would speak for us.
Well give a little background:
The first few pictures consist of us in the jungle, we volunteered at an animal refuge called Inti Wara Yassi. We stayed there for 16 days, we got split up in our work as Zack worked with monkies in a place called the Mirador, the monkies were a little more wild and crazy there, which is why no tourists were allowed up there as well as no women workers. I worked with a spectacle bear named Balu, I worked with a local guy named Edwin who had worked with Balu since he was 2 months old. Each day we would feed, clean, talk him for walks, and just play around.
Our next pictures consist of travels down Bolivia, to northern Argentina and then to Mendoza where we went on a wine tour, exploring the nations biggest wine capital.
Next we went over to Chile, and spent a few days in Santiago where we got the chance to go to see The Killers live.
Then we travelled to southern Chile, to the island of Chiloe. We WWOOF´ed there for a couple weeks, doing various chores around the tourist lodge. We encountered come great people and even got the oppertunity to ride horses along the beach.
Then after we made our way over to Argentina again, and now we are currently renting an apartment in Buenos Aires for a month, relaxing and enjoying the sites.
We wish all our fans a Merry Chirstmas and a Happy New Year, we hope you enjoy our pictures

Zack and Keith
