Wish you were here?

South America 05-06

Made it to the bus station in Santiago with about 10 minutes to spare- which usually puts me there before most of the Chileans. I had heard there may be snow on the pass, but the roads were clear, so we made it over with no problems. Well, it did tak...

Goodbye Edinburgh, Hello World

Well, apparently our time is nearly up and we're having to return to dear old Blighty very soon. Life's a beach, isn't it? Well it has been for us recently, anyway. We've been in Thailand for around two months now. It's the kind of place where nothi...

Round the World Trip 2006/07

We arrived in La Paz on Thursday afternoon. It is absolute mayhem here! Buses, taxis, combis and people everywhere. Crossing the road is a challenge in itself. We went to an Asian restaurant for our farewell meal on Thursday night. Having not had a cur...

We arrived in Arequipa early afternoon in time for lunch and a tour of the city. The city is also known as White City due to the white volcanic rock used to make the colonial buildings. One of the highlights in the city is the Santa Catalina Covent ...

 

3 weeks to go in London

Starting this off 9 months into the trip probably seems a bit strange but I've decided that I would like to have some type of memory like this that is official rather than lots of bits and pieces and scribbled bits of paper all over the place when I do...

Chile

From Valparaiso, we made our way back to Santiago and was pleasantly surprised to see the Andes surrounding the city. On our last visit to the Capital, the smog was so bad we couldn't see a thing. We had a great evening meeting up with Mary and Brian f...
