We had around two weeks untill our flight out of Santiago, Chile, so we headed off to see Salta which was pretty far north for Argentina as as far north as we could manage. We went with the idea and dreams of bungee jumping, horse back riding and travelling into bolivia to see the salt flats, but the budget just wouldnt allow such pleasures! We knew that with a full week to kill we could spend as much time as we liked taking in the gorgeous weather of Salta, a d...

Peninsula Valdez. For some reason we thought it a rather clever idea to travel south, and that in South America terms means coldness, extreme coldness! Nevertheless we caught our bus all the way from Buenos Aires which is the equivalent of 17 hours and 1,250 Km. so a very long way! For money saving strategies we caught a night bus, so no hostel was needed. Turns out a better time to travel anyway, no traffic and dark means an attempt at sleeping, which we both f...
