I would say the highlight of the trip has been trekking on El Perito Moreno Glacier. It was amazing. Poppy was not enjoying the rain that we started out with. Fortunately the day cleared and even though we had clouds the sun would pop out for various ... Read more >

So as predicted I´m slacking on the blog. Poppy and I have had a whirlwind sort of trip in the Lakes region of Patagonia. We took a 16 hour overnight bus to Bariloche from Mendoza. I think they do it at night so that you can´t see how small the ... Read more >

The last few days in Rio have been great! We attended some of the Carnival events, but Stephanie and I have proved to be the opposite of party animals. I know this doesn't come as a surprise to my family and close friends. The blocos are basically ... Read more >

Today is a bit of a blur. Thomas is a good big brother and was at the airport to get me. He haggled with the taxi drivers and impressed me with his portuguese! The day really consisted of me sleeping on Ipanema beach, sleeping on the bus and sleeping ... Read more >
