Days 397 – 413: Livin’ la vida Lima

Riding into Lima was, quite possibly, our most stressful arrival upon a city on this trip so far. I have ranted about Peruvian drivers being certifiably insane and Lima, being the capital city, seems to be a cesspool of the worst drivers imaginable. Not only did it seem like everyone on the road was trying […]

Days 373 – 380: Colombia to Ecuador and a week in Quito

On July 31, we bid farewell to magical Colombia and crossed the border into Ecuador. We used the Rumichaca border crossing, which was fairly straight-forward and fast at around an hour and 15 minutes. For details, refer to our border crossings page. Our first stop was in Ibarra, a charming little town around two hours […]

Enjoy, subscribe, and […]

Day 300: History and shiny things in La Candelaria

For our first Saturday in Bogotá, the plan was to explore La Candelaria, the historic neighbourhood of the city’s downtown area where the country’s capital was founded in 1538. The neighbourhood is very popular with local and foreign tourists due to its colourful colonial architecture, cobblestone streets, and numerous attractions.   Our first stop was Plaza Bolívar, […]

This is just a quick post to let our readers know that our resident musician was finally able to make some time for music and, as a result, we have new videos of Mexico City and Taxco up on our YouTube channel. Enjoy, subscribe, and share! 🙂    

Days 103 – 111: Our Last Week in Mexico City and Journey to Puebla

  Our initial plan of staying in Mexico City for six weeks got extended by another week because we love this city so much and there was some work to be done. Work is exactly what we did for the whole week with just a dinner in a neighbourhood restaurant and a little trip to […]

Days 33 & 34: Aguascalientes to Guadalajara

After a short 2.5-hour ride from Aguascalientes, we arrived in Guadalajara in the early afternoon. We stayed at the Expo Inn, which cost us 530 pesos (~37 CAD) for what was one of the cleanest rooms we have had so far. The room had all the amenities we could hope for, WiFi that was good […]
