Hostel Las Moiras San Carlos de Bariloche

Har vaeret uden internet de sidste dage, hvor jeg har rundet det sydlige Patagonia. Efter Puerto Madryn broed Lena og jeg op med Johnny og rejste selv videre til El Calafate, - en samlet tur paa 24 timer paa oede veje i totalt oede landsskab -, hvor vi tilbragte en enkelt dag med en alletiders gletschertur, og naeste dag tog bussen 3 1/2 time til El Chalten nord for El Calafate, der er paradis for trekkingture i ...

... said that he thought I was Brazilian and did not know I was American until I started speaking.

We talked for hours about our travels and our experiences living in Chile. I look out the window and notice the Andes are following me back to Parral, which is good because I could not bare a day without them. The next thing I know I am in Parral and Raul is at the bus terminal waiting for me. It would seem like years since I have seen him ...

... picked up at around 10am the next day to head down to bariloche.

The road trip was stunning! although we didnt do the cross of the lakes by boat... we drove by the side of all of them. It was beautiful!!! turquiose waters, trees, impresive massive mountains and animals... we couldnt have asked for better to be fair - there were even parts we did with nice weather!! Just before Bariloche we stopped at a town called Villa de Angostura for lunch and a second massive and ...

... just before the craziness of NYC and the so-called real world. Kat and Jon finally caught up with us on their South American Travels too so good to see a couple of NYC faces to ease us back into the swing of things before our flight tomorrow In the last few days we have.... Gone horsebackriding in Bariloche (sore **** after 5 hours!) Drove around twenty million lakes and took as many pictures Saw a black glacier...saw a couple of landslides and thunderour ...

... down the cliff I should be fine). Those moments where quite amazing - I saw how easy everything was and (at least I thought so - if it is true is gonna turn out) I already had solutions ... - those maybe 5 minutes made the whole treck worth it - (also I promised myself not to forget that situation and the lessons I learned from it even if I would find the path) ... I tried to assess the situation - I guessed that there ...

... include hang-gliding, which i intend on trying out, catamarans (an awkard boat-thing), hiking still snow-capped Andean summits, and moutain biking. I imagine that i will be here for at least a week, and may even return this way after Tierra del Fuego to celebrate Christmas... we'll see. Well.. that's it for today. I missed you all at Thanksgiving (we went to a great fondue restaurant and had a great time) and hope you had a wonderful time with your families. Chau for nau.

... another shining blue lake.



I scrambled down the bank to get some photos of this one and then we headed out to the main road which would take us south, past another 3 lakes before turning around and heading back to the town of Bariloche.

I guess we were getting a bit blase about all the natural beauty by this point, maybe ...

... is a campground on the left but also a free and wild campground on the right past the bridge. Further down you reach the "swiss Alps" at San Carlos de Bariloche. This bigger town has everything. chocolate shops are plentyfull. also a good mechanic for volkswagen near the official vw dealer. Bariloche is a good party town and is a tourist place of corse.

... two of us and we would look so gay sitting there all squished up against one another. Awesome. So, anyways, I meet a new roomate who is some Dutch chick (what the ****, there are more Dutch people in Bariloche than in when New York was New Amsterdam) and she wants to go get a couple of beers. The funny thing is she really means just a couple of beers. We hit up some bar/dance bar and we take a seat at the bar and get our drink on. She`s ...
