Hi all! As you have already guessed from the title, our ill-fated lost bag has finally returned to us, just on the 9th day after arrival, after 3 trips to the airport, numerous calls to LAN and filling in the baggage reclaim form on LAN site (the most ridiculous form we’ve ever seen) – but…
Hi dear all! Finally we have time and place to send you a belated report about our journey progress. All is well with us, we have reached a lovely town El Bolson, slightly darkened by the sun, having pedalled approximately 130 kilometres (not including 45 kilometres which we cycled in the Bariloche vicinity). I posted…
Hello everyone from a nice little town of Esquel. For more than 10 days we were on the road, being not really too far, but at a distance from some benefits of the civilised world, not having a possibility to use Internet or charge our devices. Now we are taking a rest from the camping…
Today we have cycled about 30 kilometres along Ruta 40, having left El Bolson. We plan to spend the night in a small place called Epuyen (Argentinians pronounce it as “Epushen”). Epuyen is a village on the lake with the same name, and we read that there are campings there, so we shouldn’t have any…
On one night in Esquel we decided to go for a dinner. We didn’t feel like going far and we walked into the first restaurant we came across on the way. Its name was La Espanola and it looked very cosy. As it was mentioned on the sign, they cooked Parillada – grilled meat dishes….
Hola, everyone! We are finally back! The road trip is over, a very (and I mean VERY) dusty car, slightly more damaged by small stones that it had been before departure, was returned to the rent a car agency yesterday, and we are having rest in Esquel and thinking how to go further south. The…
Dear relatives and friends! We have made a small video about our trip on La Trochita train, which you can see here. This train is a real museum exhibit. Its cars are made of wood and they will be celebrating their century’s birthday quite soon: they were made in Belgium in 1922. On the move…
The Chilean national park Torres del Paine was place number one in Patagonia which we had been dreaming of seeing, so we set off for a journey to the park from El Calafate. Before leaving El Chalten we had been thinking of cycling to Torres del Paine, but after three days in the pampa we…
Hello again, dear ones! Best regards to everyone from the town Puerto Natales in the south of Chile! We have just finished a 5 days’ trek in the national park Torres del Paine, but we will tell about it later in another post. After a long silence we feel like telling you about the most…
Hola, everyone! Much water has flown under the bridge since we returned from our road trip on Carretera Austral. This post was written long ago, but since then we didn’t stay anywhere long enough to actually post it. Also I made it a priority to tell you about Perito Moreno glacier as the most impressive…
