Category: South AmericaWelcome to the section of my site that’s all about my favourite place in the world – South America.

Oh, and check out this post all about my five-month trip through South America for a breakdown of all my favourite travel stories. It’s a great way to get an idea of how to structure your own route!

Fuerza Bruta Buenos Aires – What to Expect
We finished off our five days in the Argentinian Capital with a bang! More of a nuclear explosion, really: the Fuerza Bruta Buenos Aires show at the cultural centre in Recoleta Park. This utterly bonkers experience was completely fitting with our extraordinary few days of excitement and new experiences in…
San Telmo Market Buenos Aires
My trip to San Telmo Market in Buenos Aires, a Sunday antiques market offering a great cultural insight into the soul of the city…
Buenos Aires
This is just a short round-up post for Buenos Aires, since I’ve already published reviews of most of the things we did there. We arrived on a rainy Tuesday and spent the first two days trying to enjoy the city in spite of dark skies, thunderstorms, and ceaseless rain. The…
Bikes and Wine, Mendoza
A trip around Argentina’s Malbec region by bike! A Mendoza wine bike tour is the best way to discover the region’s vineyards…
My Trip to Mendoza, Argentina
My trip to Mendoza, Argentina – a small town in the heart of Malbec country. Gorgeous countryside, amazing food, and plenty of great wine!
San Lorenzo Salta – Hiking in Argentina’s Northern Mountains
On our third day in Salta, we were keen to get out into the surrounding countryside and explore. Salta is set in one of the more beautiful parts of the country, with tons of great things to see on tours of the area, and we were keen to visit a…
Salta Argentina – Relaxing in “La Linda” City
San Pedro, Chile
This post is just a very short round up of our very brief four days in Chile, and an excuse as to why we didn’t spend more time there! Originally, our plans hadn’t included either Chile or Argentina at all, as we wanted to spend the last two months in…
Uyuni Train Cemetery
Our four day trip from Tupiza to Salar de Uyuni ended in the centre of Uyuni at about 1pm, so from there we headed straight to Uyuni’s second biggest attraction, the Train Cemetery. About 3km outside the town, surrounded by a dusty wasteland filled with loose rubbish and stray dogs,…
Salar de Uyuni Tour, Day Four – Sunrise and Salt Flats
It was five in the morning and we were racing through empty darkness, cutting across a blank desert of unlit white, the headlamps of our jeep flitting on tyre tracks in the dust which were the only road we had to follow. Overhead was a bowl of stars, still dazzling even as the…
Salar de Uyuni Tour, Day Three – Rocks and Bones
After the fiasco with Sam falling through the ice the day before, we woke up on the third morning of our Salar de Uyuni trip to find his wet hiking boots frozen solid and stained white from the minerals in the hot springs we’d washed them in. As if icicle…
