Well, it's officially over...I am back in southern California, sitting on my king-sized bed, freshly showered (without wearing flip flops for the first time in 3 months!) and unpacking the contents from my overstuffed backpack into my old dresser. It ... Read more >

That´s right, we´re looking at just 13 days left of this Latin America Adventure before both Trishy and I get on our respective flights out of South America back to our home countries. By this point I think we are both ready and our minds are definitely ... Read more >

It´s official: we are STUCK in Chile. We attempted to leave San Pedro today and sat on a still bus for 3 hours, hoping the highway would open. Apparently there has been heavy snow in the Andes so the pass we need to drive through to get to Salta, Argentina is ... Read more >

I suppose there are worse things than being stuck in San Pedro de Atacama. The sun is shining, the food and coffee is quite good and it feels familiar, almost like a mini Santa Fe, New Mexico. But when you have four days to kill and not much to do ... Read more >

Well I promised I would write about everything, so it wouldn´t be true to form if I didn´t create an entry about the past few days in La Paz. However, let´s first go to happier times, 4 days ago... Trishy and I left stinky, dirty Puno, Peru on an ... Read more >

I can't believe that in the last 4 days I trekked 32 kms hiking through the magnificent Peruvian Andes. I trekked through a pass at an elevation over 12,000 ft, camped at freezing temperatures and felt all wonderful types of altitude sickness... all ... Read more >

Yes, we are. It took over 24 hours broken up into 3 days but we made it. I would write more but just as I was about to finish a well written entry about my last few days in Ecuador and my first impression of Peru we had a black out. An hour and a half ... Read more >

Once again, I´m back in Quito. I still feel like I´m on the boat as I sit here typing. I can still feel myself sway from the sea... Just a few days ago Trishy and I met up with our Intrepid group to embark on our Galapagos adventure. We were all dropped ... Read more >

We are leaving tomorrow for the Galapagos. I can't wait to see the boobies. You know, the blue-footed booby birds. Oh and the tortoises, penguins, flamingos, etc., etc. We are meeting up with our Intrepid group in a few hours to get to know one another ... Read more >

It´s hard to believe I´ve only been out of Quito for 5 days. It feels like ages ago that Trishy and I were sitting in Spanish class during the mornings and spending the afternoons trying to stay dry and awake (hey, Spanish is intense when you have 4 ... Read more >

So far Quito is definitely the nicest big city I have found myself in during the last month. It´s not too dirty (like Belize City), not too sketchy (Guatemala City) and surprisingly enjoyable to walk around. We are staying in ¨New Town¨ Quito where ... Read more >

Well the unfortunate happened. We were so close to making it to our one month travel mark on Sunday unscathed but we had some bad luck yesterday. Or rather, Trish had to bare the bad luck. On our last day in Costa Rica she had her wallet stolen out of ... Read more >
