Hello lovely people – first blog in a long while and first from Chile – Argentina – Chile

Well hello, how glorious to be travelling again and writing to you all. This is my first blog since leaving Costa Rica in February 2020, and our first trip outside Europe since then. We originally pencilled in a South America adventure for 2021. This is the re-worked version, built around long time friend and frequent travelling companion Argentinian/Australian Roberto’s big birthday – of which more later!

Our journey is Chile – Argentina – Chile, with flights London – Santiago – London to start and end the trip. We have one further flight: Santiago to Buenos Aires, several long Chilean and Argentinian bus journeys and road trips in both Argentina and for our second Chile stay. We meet up with Alison and Roberto in Buenos Aires and travel with them until they leave us in Santiago for our return flight on 14th March

It’s a bit too soon to share impressions of Santiago but I want to say hola, provide some very indicative maps of our anticipated routes, and share some photos of the stunning scenery during hour 12 to 13 of our outbound flight, looking onto the Chilean side of the Andes at terrain which in March we shall be bussing and driving through. Oh, and an obligatory selfie of our first drink on Chilean soil (well the 8th floor roof bar at our Santiago hotel!)

Until next time, adios amigos
ALISON
