Lima
Hola Gente Maravillosa! Lima was the last stop on my month long whistle stop tour of South America. I hadn’t heard great things about the city, mainly that it was pretty unsafe and there wasn’t a fat lot to do there. It’s safe to say that Lima isn’t the nicest looking city in the world, and has an extremely run down feeling to…

Valparaiso

Santiago
Hola Gente Maravillosa! After finally crossing the border through the Andes from Mendoza to Santiago, we only had a couple of days to explore Chile. We arrived at the main bus terminal with no Chilean money, no battery on our phones and we hadn’t booked a hostel either. I can be quite a disorganised traveller – but I’m never…

Iguazu Falls
Hola Gente Maravillosa! Before planning my trip to South America, I had never heard of Iguazu Falls. Now I’ve actually visited them, I can’t quite believe that I’ve gone 23 years without knowing of their existence. I´ve included a couple of photos in this post, but I took so many, that I´m going to dedicate…

Lake Tekapo
Hello Wonderful People! Our last stop in New Zealand, before dropping the van off in Christchurch and making our way back to Auckland (to take our long flight back to the UK, boo), was Lake Tekapo. We were lucky enough to visit on a beautiful day, but even in bad weather I can’t imagine the lake…
