Foto of the Week from … Buenos Aires: Hidden Walls
May 11th
I love graffiti, especially in Buenos Aires. I did a graffiti biking tour last year with Graffitimundo and Biking Buenos Aires.

Foto of the Week from … Buenos Aires: The Ecological Reserve
Apr 27th
I finally made it to the Reserva Ecológica (ecological reserve) Costanera Sur in with Biking Buenos Aires. This was on my to-do list the entire time I lived in Buenos Aires last year. It is just one of those places that is not super-easy to get to, and it will take up an entire day

Isla Mancera is a small island without any cars. It is a rustic life here. It appears to be the place for Chilean families to go to relax and enjoy nature. We took a short bus ride from the center of Valdivia towards Niebla and then took a short boat ride to the island. You

Foto of the Week from … Cabo Froward Trek – The Happy Side
Feb 17th
Now that we’ve all had a good laugh over the miseries I suffered trekking to the End of the World, I will share some happy photos. We awoke on Day 4 worried. I think we were all afraid (I was certainly terrified) at what Mother Nature may throw at us. Luckily, it was not raining.
