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…
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.

Eating watermelon with a fork

Honey and Sugar
The sun poured through the window as I opened my eyes and welcomed another beautiful day. Although the warmth made clothes unnecessary I slipped a dress on and made my way to breakfast. Mi madre Español had an all day meeting, but she left my roommate and me breakfast on the table. As I sat…
A Thousand Words
When in Sevilla: wonder the streets, escape the sun with an iced coffee under a local cafe, get lost in the ancient structures, take as many pictures as possible.
Travel Day 1
Great things about traveling alone: 1. I can do what I want when I want ( however don’t I do that already?) 2. Going through security and finding my gate take 20 minutes instead of 45+ 3. When I’m hungry I can go where ever I want, not limited by my brother’s requests for McDonalds…
