Kayaking and Hiking in the south!!

---

After doing 2 days of kayaking in Bariloche...yeah I finaly control the eskimoroll now. I relaxed a bit in the city in the mountains....before I started to make my way back to Chili....Guess I was lucky with my ride, the car that stopped had to go to the same place as I wanted to go...so 4 hours later and 2 times the paperwork at the boarder I was back in Chili.
there I found out that Hitchhiking even works with two guys (and two great backpacks).
I met an American Guy there when freecamping at the lake side, and together we went to a Nat. Park to hike a couple days along vulcano Osorno and some beautiful lakes and mountains.
days later I made my way to Chiloe, an Island a bit smaller than holland do some more hiking.
Different from the rest of Chile because it rains so much here (reminds me of home) but even with the rain it's beatiful
On my way to the nat. park I met some chilenos who wanted to do the same hike, so I joined them and on the road we picked up a German in our group aswell. So with a mix of English and Spanish we spent the day hiking and talking along the coast and the night talking besides the campfire!
Some good days again
Next will be the carretera austral in Chilenian Patagonia...can't wait to enjoy the rest of the country

After hanging out with some Chilenos I took the boat further to the south, where I started to hitchhike on the desolated but gorgeous Caretera Austral

Free camping next to the road (always good if there are others that do the same) and at 6 in the morning to the glaciar to save the 3000 pesos...
