One juiced out iPod, a bag of German biscuits, too many rounds of sh*thead (card game for those of you not down with the kids) and a long ferry journey later and I was in Uruguay. I have never had any real desire to visit Uruguay, but its proximity to Buenos Aires made it an ideal way to spend a sunny Sunday. With only six precious hours to spend exploring we promptly wasted one fruitlessly trying to hire a golf buggy to tour the town. Only at the en...

Hey everyone, long time no write. But, when the sun is shining and you can hear the sound of the ocean at every turn, the internet cafe just doesn't hold quite the same appeal as another day on another beautiful beach.

So far in Peru I've chilled in Lima - aka shopped! Bought some wicked alpaca gloves which have so far been the envy of all the chicas I've met in the hostels - ohh yes - no more topshop for me! Was tempted to buy lots more, but am resisting as looking forw...
