Dear Colombia, I have so much love for you! From what I’ve experienced, through the food (where we stayed had a diverse amount…

Big Cityx2 in Brasil
Rio de Janeiro What came to be a 24 hour bus ride, Tim and I dropped our backpacks off instantly and treated ourselves with the classic, caipirinhas! We didn’t have the fullest tummy from the long bus ride, so I was definitely drunk off of just one! Below is a video of where we enjoyed…

Beach life in Floripa, Brasil
Crossing the boarder to Brasil was easy and interesting. The bus we hopped on in Uruguay does not cross the border. They had a pit stop on the road, which you then have to walk across. The main street had you standing between Uruguay and Brasil. You’d see two different languages on one side— there…

Just a Ferry Ride Away to Uruguay
From Buenos Aires to Colonia del Sacramento, the ferry ride is about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Uruguay was not originally a part of the South America plan. But because it’s so close, why miss it? We visited 3 different towns in 1 week The first city, Colonia De Sacaramento, was such a sleepy town..…

One day, I’m connected to the powerful Igauzu waterfalls.. The sunshine is bright, causing a multiple rainbows when meeting the splashes of the falls.

meeting the city— Córdoba, Argentina
Big city with multiple vibes. This city is a fave!! It reminded me of home (but only a little bit) because of the hippy neighborhood known as Güemes > otherwise, there’s definitely a German influence here. + many buildings have a European look to it. Once you walk a few blocks from the hippy neighborhood,…
