Drift Diving

After spending a week in Playa del Carmen, which we were certainly not fans of, we hopped over to Cozumel, the small island just to the east.
We read that diving was the thing to do so after scopingMeer informatie
Touristy PDC

We came to Playa del Carmen hoping this could be an area we would like to stay longer or to return to, having read that this was a great place for digital nomads. Now that we have been here for 5Meer informatie

Charming Colonia

Well after nearly two months in Argentina, we finally said goodbye for now. Man did we love Buenos Aires and it was sad to leave.
But it is still nice to continue exploring new places so off toMeer informatie
Jujuy, Argentina

This area was so much more like Peru, from the look of the locals (darker skin and shorter), to the food (a lot of llama and potatoes), to the houses (made of mud and brick). It appeared to be muchMeer informatie
Salinas Grandes

Due to the political unrest in Bolivia, we chose not to go to the Uyuni salt flats as we originally wanted, but luckily Argentina has their own salt flats! Not as big but still really impressive.

How do they stay out so late?!

I have no idea how the Argentines do it. They go to dinner at 10pm any day of the week. For New Years, we were proud of ourselves for making it until 2:30am - for us Americans, that is quite late andMeer informatie
BsAs - part 2

Life has been good here in Buenos Aires. A little mellow and some days I feel a little guilty that we haven’t done more touristy things or venturing outside our nice neighborhood of Palermo. ButMeer informatie

Smart or not adventurous?

Today we attempted to drive to the Pali Aike National Park to hike around its massive volcanic crater. But sadly after 2.5 hours in the car, we realized our little rental car likely wouldn’t make itMeer informatie
