Tiistaina 22.4. Santiagossa oli suuri mielenosoitus. Tällä kertaa minäkin osallistuin. Osoitettiin mieltä jälkiehkäisyn puolesta. Chile on ainoa maa Etelä Amerikassa, jossa jälkiehkäisy on laitonta. Abortti on kaikissa Latinalaisen Amerikan maissa laiton. Abortin ja jälkiehkäisyn laittomuus koskee lähinnä köyhiä chileläisiä, sillä rikkail...

After four thousand miles flying we  I arrived to Santiago at 04:30 AM, to early to arrive a unkown country and without hotel and car reservation. We ate an american breakfast in the airport  and walked the terminal many times until Rent a car office was open. I took a compact car to travel to Viña del Mar. Después de re...

Si on avait cru revenir un jour a Santiago... C'est marrant apres 3 ans de revenir dans le meme quartier. Dans les changement que l'on remarque, les vieux bus pourris qui sillonnaient la ville a fond, bruyamment et dans une fumee noire n'existent plus ou presque. Ce sont maintenant des bus tout neufs, qui s'arretent a des arrets prevus et roulen...

After an 11 and a half hour flight I arrived in Santiago 5 hours earlier than when I left Auckland having crossed the international date line. Feeling somewhat disorientated and a bit lost doing my first bit of travelling without Louise, some Irish lads promptly took me under their wing and straight out for a few beers. After a weekend spent mos...

I left Miami to Santiago de Chile. It was going to be a long flight and I was on time at the airport. The flight was overbooked and the LAN flight attendant saw I was alone and asked me if I wanted to take a LAN flight 4 hours later with a stopover in Lima, Peru. I refused since I could not smoke on that airport, the Wi-Fi wasnt working and I ha...

Well it's goodbye to South America! This place has been amazing. We've seen some breath-taking sights, met some wonderful people and done some amazing things. This continent has surpassed my every expectation. The things we've seen and done here will live on in my memory forever. The people here are so friendly and welcoming, it's actually hard ...

I´ve decided to take on the task of recapping 3 weeks in one log. I know, it sounds crazy....some say it can´t be done...but I say it can! (Sorry to repeat some info. too... but since I was lame and my emails haven´t been going out to everyone I decided to start from the beginning again. Feel free to skim!) Although I am alone now, my travels be...

A 12 hour flight across the international dateline meant we arrived earlier than we took off. The flight from Auckland to Santiago is supposed to play havoc with your body clock and give you one of the worst feelings of jet lag. With positive thinking I was able to overcome this by telling myself no matter how bad I felt, it couldn´t possibly co...

After 10 hrs on the bus to Pucon we woke to beautiful sun rise on the mountains and glistening on the lakes, really spectular. First thing we noticed when we got off was how cold it is. The wind is v strong (so much so that it has taken off a lot of the snow from the top of the volcano). We called Brad and he came to collect us from the bus stat...

Well Ive finally made it! I arrived in Santiago on Friday afternoon and set straight to work on finding somewhere to watch the game (rugby). I met up with a few of the others that are on the same tour as me so that was good. Very disappointed in the end result but still worth getting up at 5am to watch though. Not too sure about drinking so earl...
