So Bolivia. Wow.
Quite a country, very different from Argentina. More impressionant in terms of landscapes and sights, people are similarly friendly (though you quickly learn not to believe everything they say when money is involved…) but harder for the body (I haven’t been lower than 3500m above sea level in the last week) and a […]

So we finally left Buenos Aires after a few days lazying at my sister’s place (actually yacine and I were lazying while matt and cat were taking spanish lessons). After a 17 hours bus trip, we got to Puerto Iguazu, a little town right next to the infamous Iguazu Falls which are on the border […]

So yes I did it!!
I climbed that goddam volcano, starting at 6am in the morning and reaching the top around 13pm. The first third was on a dirt path (sand and stones) and it was probably the hardest, along with the last 45 minutes.

We were actually climbing […]
