Days 508 – 513: Brazil to Uruguay and going coastal

The border crossing from Brazil to Uruguay was reasonably fast, but we did lose more time than needed because we accidentally entered Uruguay before exiting Brazil so we had to go back before proceeding. Not that we have any plans to return to Brazil in the near future, but we did get a visa for […]

Days 381 – 392: A lake, two cities, and a border town

Upon hearing about the beautiful colonial city of Cuenca, we knew that this was one place we needed to visit before leaving Ecuador so, after spending a great week in Quito, we headed south. Since the road to Cuenca is an 8-hour ride, we split the journey into two trips with a stop in the […]

We arrived fairly early in the afternoon, giving us a good amount of time to have some lunch, check-in at our […]

Day 338: The town of Guatapé and a giant rock

After a mini celebration at finding the misplaced spare keys in the morning, we took a ride about two hours out of Medellín to climb a giant rock located close to the towns of Guatapé and El Peñol. The two towns have had a long-standing dispute over who owns this rock so it is currently known by two […]

Our favourite places in Central America

Before delving into our favourite places in Central America, I would like to call attention to the fact (as obvious as it may be) that everyone travels differently. Phil and I enjoy exploring cities, meeting different types of people (preferably those without psychopathic traits), learning about the history and culture of the place we are […]
