I did a update in english a few weeks ago but in less than one second, I lost everything so i hope this won t happen again otherwise I ll just give up on writing this blog, so frustrating!! Anyway, I left the cheapest country in South America to arrive to the most expensive one, Chile, quite a shock!! I was also quite surprises to leave a country where we had been on sand roads for days and as soon as we crossed the border, I feel like I m in Europe, very good roads, signalization everywhere, despite I m in the middle of a desert!! Atacama Together with Fabien and Elise, we had arrived in the desert of Atacama. Again, we were quite shocked when we arrived in the touristic village. So close to Bolivia ... read more

How´s the crack? The crack´s mighty!! Mooie uitspraak he? We hebben van onze Ierse vriend wat ´slang´ geleerd en dat wilden we jullie natuurlijk niet onthouden. Echter als we eerlijk zijn is onze kont helemaal niet goed omdat we al weer 20 uur in stomme bussen hebben gespendeerd en helaas mogen we er vanmiddag nog even 30 achteraan doen. We hebben nu gelukkig wel wat uurtjes te spenderen in het oohhhh zo wonderlijke Comodoro Rivadavia omdat er de afgelopen dagen van alles is gebeurt wat wij niet wilden. Om bij het begin te beginnen gaan we maar verder waar we jullie zonder fatsoenlijke foto´s achter hebben gelaten. In Chili hebben we ons gewaagd aan de grootse ´W-trek´ en zoals jullie nu merken hebben we dat overleefd. Omdat het verstandig is om deze hike met een groep ... read more

Well after a few solid days of walking it was nice to take the hiking boots off and slip on some comfortable traveling shoes. This is metaphorically speaking given the fact our hiking shoes are our dancing shoes which are our restaurant shoes which are our running shoes and you guessed it, are also our traveling shoes (don´t feel too sorry for us as we do have a pair of sandals each also). We are half way through our mammoth bus journey and after a day and overnight bus we are at the small port town of Comodoro Rivadavia. We arrived at 5.30am and depart on another overnight trip at 10.30pm so we should get to know this small oil and coal exporting town intimately over the next 16 hours. From what we can gather there ... read more

Ein Tag in Argentinien / A day in Argentina 1. Allgemeines / Preface German: Ich habe in nur einem Monat so viel unterschiedliche Landschaften, Farben, Formen und Muster gesehen und so viel erlebt, dass ich es hier nicht alles aufschreiben kann. Aus diesem Grund berichte ich lediglich ueber einen Tag, der mich besonders beeindruckt hat. English: I have seen so many different landscapes, colours, shapes and archetypes in only one month, that it is almost impossible to write down everything. That's why I am writing only about one day, where I was impressed so much. 2. Ein Tag aus meinem Leben / Daily life as a traveller German: Heute ist Samstag in Comodoro Rivadavia - einer kleinen Handelsstadt in Argentinien, die auch aufgrund von Oelvorkommen in ihrer naeheren Umgebung ein klein wenig mehr gewachsen ist. H ... read more
