Hola Well, STA don't know where I am so I hope the map is right............ I am in Pucon, got off the Navimag ferry yesterday and am with a group that formed on the ferry so I changed my plans and I am now in Pucon. Hopefully you can find it if you search. Why are we here? That's for later...... The Navimag ferry. A real cargo ferry really- the cows on the car deck lulling you to sleep, or something like that. The journey was good, actually really quite relaxe...

Hola de Chile As you can see I'm now fully in Chile. Have been a few days but I've been rather busy. This blog will be in 2 parts- initially the see and do bit, followed by what has been a difficult, personal emotional journey. That way you can opt out of the tears and simply enjoy Chile for all I've so far found it to be. Okay, got a 14 hour bus here from Ushuaia. I was lucky that there were only 5 on the bus so the border crossings were much shorter than befo...

I felt accepted and the peop...

It is a stunningly beautiful place. Not unlike the wilds of Scotland actually, but with more glaciars and fabled names like the Magellan Straights and the Beagle Channel. These are but ...

Well, I'm actually in BA not Puerto Iguazu in that 10 hour gap between buses, looking out on a glorious day and thinking this is a good time to travel having read all your entrries about high winds, rain, snow even. Here for me the problem is humidity- a different kind of rain as it comes from within!! I actually owe BA an apology- I thought it was hot and sweaty/humid here. Err no, not compared to Iguazu So, Los Cataratas de Iguazu have come and gone. The guid...
