And so I am back where it all began, where I first created the blog to write the final one. After our frantic dash around on Saturday we made it to the airport in plenty of time to claim back our last remaining pesos to splash out on the most expensive sandwich of the whole trip! After months of sleeping on buses I actually slept for a good few hours on the flight so the 12 hours disappeared quickly. It was so lovely to arrive into Cork to find my mum, cian and g...

I hope all your intentions are being looked after, at least some divine inspiration is coming direct from Chile which should help a little. I have had this most wonderful relaxing day hiking around the National Park near Pucon. I came down yesterday to the lake district in Chile s...
