Un vuelo de dos horas hacia el Norte de Chile. Nos escapamos tres horas en el aeropuerto mientras esperabamos el siguiente vuelo. Una visita corta y rapida a Antofogasta

Antofagasta squats in the shade, like Chile itself in miniature. It is a shelf city, its foundations punctured into the rock face and the sand, tipping precpetibly down towards the coast line. A line of mirrored buildings beating out solar flares lined conspicuously against the more familiar cardboard paradises, locked up storage facilities, asp...

Back in AF after the epic desert trip, got to decide where to go next... hmmmm. Might try Bolivia :)

Hi Everyone! Time for another update. Not too much has happened since we have left Viña. We took a 6 hr bus ride north to La Serena. We got there around 5 and were leaving the next morning to continue moving north so we didn't see too much. The next day we took another 6hr bus ride to a small small town called Caldera. This town is very sketchy ...

I got woken up on the Saturday by a girl who had slept with one of the Irish guys in my dorm the night before. I guess that worked out well for both of us. The German guys in my dorm who I'd asked to wake me up, gave up after hitting me (as requested) and presuming I was dead. I dragged myself to the tour bus and well.... I'm not sure what happe...

Yes from the cold cold nights of the desert to the warmer climes of a coastal town. When I was in Iquique at the party at the Air force Base I met, Ximena who lives in Antofagasta which is on my route south so I accepted her invitation to visit here too. What strikes me most about being in Chile is that it feels like I´m in another place totally...

Doncs aixo (sense accents perque no els trobo)... despres de mes de 30 hores d'aeroport en aeroport, ja som a Antofagasta. Be, hem arribat nosaltres i la maleta de'n Jako... jo em vaig acomiadar de la meva a Madrid, després que l'avio de Barcelona arribes amb mes d'una hora de retard, i tinguessim mitja hora llarga per anar corrent d'una porta a...

Long drive today through impressive desert scenery. Stopped en route at an abandoned nitrate mining town where we first looked at the cemetry. The 6 or seven hundred graves were largly neglected and some were exposed to the world. One grave contained two tiny coffins, obviously babies or very young children. The lids were askew and I saw swaddli...

Nach dem hektischen Santiago war Antofagasta direkt eine Erholung. Gewohnt habe ich bei Claudio's Familie. Es kam immer wieder jemand dazu oder andere gingen, aber im Schnitt waren wir 10 Leute in einem ziemlich kleinen Häuschen. Grossmutter, Eltern, Geschwister, Neffen und Nichten, Cousins und Cousinen... Es gab immer sehr leckeres Essen, ich b...

Woke up to power but no water in our room. At least we could see how dirty we were from yesterday's dusty ride. Had breakfast and pointed South. Good thing we stayed where we did because there wasn't another room until we got to this city 470km later. There wasn't even a gas station for 365km. That got us nervous and happy enough to hug the gas ...
