From El Calafate in Argentinian Patagonia we took the bus across the border to Puerto Natales. This small town is the gateway to Torres del Paine national park.
As our twelve day stay in Patagonia comes to an end, the next adventurous destination is already waiting for us. We will be flying from Punta Arenas to the capital of Santiago, stay overnight in the airport, and depart in the early morning to Easter Island!
In January 2015, we visited four countries: Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, and Chile. From China we were meant to land in São Paulo, but ended up in Rio de Janeiro instead, where we mainly enjoyed Brazilian food. The highlight of Brazil was without a doubt Costa Verde, although the tour of Rio de Janeiro was very nice too.
We, Mark & Herta, are currently backpacking through Europe, and eventually planning to settle in London. Beyond that? The possibilities are endless.
