Wednesday 05/10/2011 Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Home of the shaven mick and novelty-sized rear-ends. But before the boys could sink their teeth into some of what Rio had to offer, they had to find a hostel called Piratas de Ipanema (pirates of Ipanema), which was proving to be a f***ing head-ache at 6 in the morning. When they eventually found it, they discovered it was right up their alley, scummy as f***, cheap as f***, and situated with Ipanema Beach and Copa...

Wednesday 28/09/2011 A typically uneventful bus ride was had overnight all the way across the Border into Bolivia, the only advantage was the lads nailing some well-needed sleep. The plan was to stay in Copacabana for the evening and maybe do a mission out to the Isla del Sol on Lake titicaca (highest lake in the world), and cruise on into La Paz the next day. After about an hour waltzing around Copacabana though it was clear the place was a festering s***ho...

They were pretty amazing birds, 3 metre wingspans, and plenty of them around to get some awesome photos with the canyon as a backdrop. The canyon was pretty cool too, was meant to be the second biggest in the wor...

monday 12/09/2011 The bus driver heading south over the border into peru was a complete and utter newby. Early on in the day, he put the front wheel into a ditch on a straight flat peice of road, and nearly tipped the bus over. Crossing the border was a f***en joke, especially for eddy whose temporary travel document wasnt sitting well with some retarded ecuadorian border officials. It was obvious that they were officials because they were wearing t-shirts, ...

Wednesday 7/09/2011 Banos was set in a pretty surreal location, the town was completely enclosed by volcanoes, cliffs, and waterfalls. The lads hired pushbikes and headed off on a recommended trail that offered views of a series of spectacular waterfalls streaming off the volcano and into the Rio Bamba. The first OSH-approved activity of the day was hopping in cage and flying across the river over the top of the first waterfall. The whole set-up was dodgy as...
