Before arriving in Puerto Montt multiple people warned me about the lack of security and general safety in the city. (Of course I only hear all this the day or two before I get there) Therefor arriving into the train station, at eleven o’clock at night, without any idea of where I was going to…

Futaleufu and surrounding areas, Chile
Here a some pictures I managed to take of the areas surrounding Tineo Patagonia and Futaleufu, Chile.
Chaiten, Chile
I spent a total of one month and a day at Tineo Patagonia. I don’t have enough time, words, or patience to fully articulate how much I enjoyed my time there. The Monday of February 23rd I left my little home in Futaleufu to continue my travels. After sitting on the side of the road…
La Vaca, Tineo Patagonia
(the cow) There once was a cow. A lonely, thirsty cow, living in the waterless top pasture at Tineo Patagonia. New to the campo it had not yet established a name or true owner for itself; someone to attended to its water needs. Thankfully this was all about to change, for on the horizon was…
Home, Tineo Patagonia
Have you ever met someone and felt like you’ve arrived home? When short conversations easily turn to long conversations. When a question about work turns into a twisting and winding adventure through the paths and stories that have shaped you into the person currently sitting on the porch? I found this rare unicorn (this ones…
La Familia, Tineo Patagonia
I was a nanny for majority of my time while on the farm. Even though I also coordinated the volunteers, they only needed a few minutes in the morning before I headed up to “the house”. “The house” is the personal home of M and F about 25 minutes, by foot, from the farm. Most…
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…
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…
