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 397 – 413: Livin’ la vida Lima

We embarked on our journey mid-morning and about an hour into it, we passed by a large industrial cylinder with the Starbucks logo plastered across it. Phil, being the attentive rider that […]
