Maria & George's Travels: Vignettes of our adventures
A month driving Patagonia in a campervan. Four thousand km of mostly gravel roads, tens of thousands of potholes, three broken doors, Patagonia’s legendary and relentless winds – and stunning scenery.
Face-to-face with Galapagos tortoises, marine iguanas, sea lions, and blue-footed boobies. Wildlife in Galapagos show no fear of humans.
From Santiago’s pisco bars to the world’s most remote airport – Rapa Nui – and back, then north to the second driest desert in the world, the Atacama.
Overnight buses, sand-boarding, penguins and vultures, hiking the Colca Canyon, searching for ceviche in Lima.
Our first day in La Paz the city was locked down by a miners’ strike. Our last day was a national general strike. Luckily in between we got to see the best of Bolivia.
