By the looks of things, Tineo Patagonia

Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to take as many pictures as I wanted to take of the farm and surrounding areas but here are a few I was able to take. I never grew tired of the scenery here. Every day the mountains, glacier, and surrounding lands took my breath away.      

Los voluntarios, Tineo Patagonia

I stayed on Tineo Patagonia from January 22 until February 23, and loved almost every minute. Tineo Patagonia is a Eco-lodge that was purchased from a woman who ran the campo as a local-raft guide training school. A lawyer from Santiago bought the land and all the the buildings on the land from her with…

I’m baack 

Hello!  I apologize for my long absence. When I left Bariloche the plan was to volunteer for two weeks before slowly making my way up to Peru or Bolvia, however that all changed when I actually got to Futaleufu and met my soon to be friend/ boss. Upon arriving in Futaleufu I met F, one…

Futaleufu, Chile

I left Bariloche at seven am the 21st. I arrived in Futaleufu at seven pm on the same day. I had intended on taking a bus from Bariloche to Esquel, and then Esquel to futaleufu. However, there were more people who wanted to go on the bus to Futaleufu then seats on the bus, and…

Budget while traveling

I am a details orientated person which makes planning and maintaining my budget almost fun. I know, I know, I’m a weirdo. For my current eight month trip I did an extensive budget. In total I had about 10,000 usd; a product of selling my car, graduation gifts, and working 60 hours a week for…

Bariloche, Argentina

My first few hours in Bariloche was quite possibly the worst hours I have experienced during my past months of traveling. After waking up on Sunday, changing all my plans, spending over 350 dollars, I arrived into Bariloche. I stayed in the airport to watch the Seahawks game, and then shortly after received an email…

Buenos Aires, Argentina

Most my days in BA consisted of sleeping in, being sick, and leaving the hostel once everyday. The first day I went on walking tour with the hostel to Palmero. The second time I needed to pick up some money that I sent to me. I used a program called xoom because I could get…

La boca, Buenos Aires

Although I wasn’t feeling well one of my dorm mates dragged me out of bed to see La Boca. La Boca is a small area in Buenos Aires with colorful buildings and thriving culture.

Do you even crossfit?

You may or may not know that I am very into crossfit. Some people while traveling collect things such as paintings or magnets I, however, collect crossfit shirts. So far I have attended crossfit classes in Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, and now Argentina. (I must admit I do collect scarfs and bracelets) Before my experience…

Ho-lay Bariloche

Two hours ago I was laying in bed. Two hours ago my day consisted of laying in bed, eating, and watching the Seahawks game. One hour ago an email informed me that I needed to be in Bariloche today before midnight. One hour ago I booked my flight, canceled my last nights stay (didn’t get…

On the road again.

Well, I have arrived in Buenos Aires, Argentina… And I’m pretty unprepared. I arrived with no idea of a place to stay, no clue of transportation options, and in general no preparation. In part, this was a result of my hectic 2.5 weeks spent at home. I have no idea how the time passed so…
