Puerto Madryn, Argentina

We were checking some travel pictures tonight, lots of them un-categorized. We found this special picture took at Puerto Madryn, in Argentina. Lots of memories because in this place we met very nice friends :D

One year since we left home and we started this trip

So, we are so happy to tell you that we have been 1 year traveling South America :D Chile, Peru, Bolivia, Brazil, Argentina and then Chile again!

Some reflections:

When we started this trip we just had $500 bucks and the hope to learn more about people, countries and how the culture of our neighbors are mixed in this Southern America. In the middle of the trip we lost a memory card from Machu Picchu, we lost some weight (now we are recovering), we left our jobs and some kind of living, specially one of us, always in a big city, polluted, with some good cafes and lots of recitals (for South America I mean).

Camping at El Bolson, Argentina

What happens when you arrive to a new town and you realize that all hostels, B&B, hotels, etc are fully booked?

Patagonia

A magical place, a new world, a brand new world.

When you go there you feel it, you just feel it, the sense of wonder, the amazement of being in a a new place full of possibilities.

You are surrounded by nature, you are not on top of it, you are part of it.

It’s wild, it’s huge, it’s a place to learn how to take care of yourself and others, including this time nature itself

If you are going with time
