Two years in the making, and we are an hour out from Gap Year. Flying through Panama, and then down to Santiago. Major thanks to our friends who made time to see us before we left and to Best Friends and Roommates Tom, Emily, and Stella the cat for hosting us.Leggi altro

Day 4: Cerro Castillo Day Hike
14 gennaio 2024, Cile ⋅ ⛅ 54 °F
Super amazing & tiring day hiking to Cerro Castillo which is 16 KM, 8 hours, and 1,100 m elevation gain from where we parked.

Our incredible guide met us at the car. It was weird when he hopped into our trunk, but I thought it would be rude to ask. He walked us to the trail head, gave Kieran an inspiring speech, and sent us on our way. What he didn’t tell us is that he would meet us at the very top to check in on our well being. 10/10 good dog guide.

Day 5: Chile Chico Sadness
15 gennaio 2024, Cile ⋅ 🌬 59 °F
Everyday can’t be awesome. Fun fact: you need a paper copy notarized letter 72 hours in advance from the rental car company to cross borders between Chile and Argentina, which is frustrating because our company is next to a border station and didn’t give us a heads up in emails or when we picked up the car.

Regardless, we spent the day driving the Carretera Astral and hanging out in Chile Chico. Met good doggo Guapo and made plans to back track and hit some spots we missed on the way.

Day 7: Capillas de Mármel & Friends
17 gennaio 2024, Cile ⋅ ☁️ 61 °F
Today was a great day meeting new people. We started with kayaking the Capillas de Mármel and met Canadian Devin Protzko (real name Craig). He loves skiing, mountain biking and hiking so automatically hit it off. We also picked up hitchhikers Max and Julia from Northern Italy and had a wonderful car ride discussing Texas with them. We might continue north with Max and Julia tomorrow.

We ended in Villa Mañihaules where our booked hostel was mistakenly full so we pivoted to a small cabin.

18 gennaio 2024, Cile ⋅ 🌧 50 °F
Very relaxing day driving through the mountains and visiting Puerto Cisnes on the Pacific Ocean. Cannot express how tall the mountains are in this region; it always feels like another planet and biome.

Best part of the day was running into Max and Julia who got the hostel across the street from us.

Day 9: Hotspring and New Friends
19 gennaio 2024, Cile ⋅ 🌙 48 °F
We attempted to hike the Laguna Los Pumas which started with 200 meters of steep switch backs and took 6 hours. We had to cut back early because we had an appointment at natural hot springs, where we met Americans and Australians Jordan, Taylor, and Umma.

We had such a great time that we grabbed dinner with them, met an uncle/niece from the UK and then invited Max and Julia. The whole squad went for a beer and had a wonderful night in Puyuhaupi.

Kieran said this was his first time meeting strangers internationally and sharing a beer together so it meant a lot to me personally to share this type of experience which I’ve enjoyed many times.

Last day in Patagonia and we are exhausted. We went for one more hike on a farmers property who charges $2 per person for the entry. It was a great view of Puyuhaupi.

We finally made our way back to Balmaceda in a beautiful little cabin and turned in early so we can catch our flight to Buenos Aires tomorrow morning!
