I am so impressed by the wines of Cafayate and have been on a mission to try as many from the top level bodegas as possible. I have had so many great experiences that I have to split this into two parts. Part 1 is all about the bodegas. In Part 2, I will share […]
Foto of the Week from … Argentina: Cafayate is Delicious!
I am a lucky chica. I am staying at a gorgeous, relaxing resort. I am trying some of the best wines in Argentina (more to come on that soon). And I am eating some of the best food I have had in Argentina. Of course I have had some memorable steak dinners in Buenos Aires. […]
My Luxury Vacation at Viñas de Cafayate Wine Resort
I have been working a lot. In fact, between maintaining this website and working on the Buenos Aires City Guide, I am probably working close to 40 hours a week. No, I am not complaining. I am enjoying it. However, I need a break. And want to treat myself. Viñas de Cafayate Wine Resort invited […]
Cerrillos, Argentina: A Small Town, A King Size Bed, and Real Coffee
I have to be honest. The shared dorm in a hostel thing is getting a little old. After my Roomorama apartment in Santiago, I realized I need to treat myself to some privacy and nicer accommodations every once in a while so as not to get myself to the point that I scream at 20-something […]
Foto of the Week from … The Middle of the Andes: Lines
I escaped the flooding desert after a rather miserable bus ride that inexplicably took about 6 hours longer than it should have. It is good to be back in Argentina. When the bus crossed the Andes in the north of Argentina, it was after dark, so I could not see much. I just felt the […]
Buenos Aires Take 4… And Big News!
Yep! I’m going back! This will be my fourth time visiting Buenos Aires. Long before I had a blog (or ever read a blog), and long before the plan to quit my job and travel was created, I came to Buenos Aires for a 2-week vacation with friends. I not only loved the city, I […]
There Is More to El Chalten Than Mountains, Lakes, and Glaciers
Since I have had the benefit of an experienced guide in El Chalten, I have learned a lot about the terrain and climate. The Flowers The Lichens On many of the rocks, you could see the interesting colors and patterns of the lichens. The Animals When we entered the park, we were told by the […]
Planking: An Aussie Photo Tradition
I do not normally post this many times in a week, but I had to share these fun photos from my Patagonian Trails tour with Adventure Center. One of the benefits of a guided tour is getting to know the people in your group. I have discovered in my travels that Aussies are a lot of […]
Foto of the Week from … El Chalten – A Pretty Farewell
On the last day of my Patagonian Trails Tour, I got up early to have breakfast with and say farewell to the great group of Aussies I got to know over the last several days. Yep, that’s right. I was surrounded by Aussies again, and I had a great time. David, who joined the tour […]
Photo Essay: Defeated by the Winds of Patagonia at Pliegue Tumbado
Our final day of trekking was a tough one. Not because of the terrain or the distance or even that it was all ascending. I got a taste of that infamous Patagonian wind. And it kicked my ass. The day started out much cooler and a bit windier than the first two days of trekking. […]
