In February 2015, we visited only one new country: Chile, but we went back to Argentina for a few days. From Patagonia, we traveled to Easter Island, after returning to the mainland. We traveled by bus to Mendoza, to try out Argentinian wines in addition to the food we already tried. After returning to Santiago, and trying out lots of Chilean food, we flew north to San Pedro. From there, we crossed into Bolivia.
The overview below lists the expenses in Chile and Argentina. For Argentina, the expenses during our three day stay this month are added to last months’ overview, as this gives the full picture of the expenses. For Bolivia, where we spent the last three days in February, we will cover all expenses in next months’ recap.
The Good
The Bad
A detailed list of expenses per country is listed below. The amounts per person are based on our two-person journey. Flights are listed separately (and are not included in the countries’ budget) as we booked these in advance.
Total (January & February): * Days: 15, * Budget: $1,800 ($60 pppd), * Expenses: $1,836 ($61 pppd).
From Chile, we crossed into Bolivia at the end of February, which is where we will stay for two weeks. After, it is onwards to Peru and Ecuador. Highlight of Ecuador will without a doubt be our visit to Galapagos Islands. On April 1st, we will leave Ecuador for Colombia.
We, Mark & Herta, are currently backpacking through Europe, and eventually planning to settle in London. Beyond that? The possibilities are endless.
