Dalcahue

What a beautiful little town. There are artisans all over presenting beautiful work from sheep wool. Great quality at cheap prices compared to what you can get in Europe. I wish I had a giantOkumaya devam et
Puñihuil

We came to see penguins but we got so much more. Penguins in the distance, dolfins swimming right next to the boat, and an uncountable number of cormorants and other sea birds. And on the way home weOkumaya devam et
Valdivia

Home for two days. A cute little town with a little fish and vegetable market. It’s a place full of history.
Museo Histórico y Antropológico

Time for a history lesson. About the Mapuche, about how horses influenced the natives’ life’s after European settlers had brought them to South America and about German settlers in Valdivia.
Niebla Castle

During the Spanish conquest in Chile this fort was used – also to scare away pirates. Today the remains are open for visitors.
Temuco

Next stop at a friend’s friend’s place. 😊
Volcan Llaima

Had a short hike to a waterfall and went sledding.
Pucon

Left Temuco in a rush after riots and demonstrations all over the country. They’re demonstrating in Pucon, too, but in a rather peaceful way.
Villarica: On top of the world

The most exhausting thing I’ve ever done in my life: hiking Villarica, the most active volcano in South America. But the view from the top and into the caldera was more than worth hiking six hoursOkumaya devam et
Huerquehue National Park

It’s a nice little walk, they say. It’s a serious hike, I say – especially after hiking Villarica the previous day. But: the national park is stunningly beautiful.
Layover in Santiago

From what I saw from the bus Santiago de Chile might be one of those cities I could fall in love with. Due to the ongoing demonstrations, limited public transport, and many closed places I can’tOkumaya devam et
On the way north

North of La Serena the road winds up the mountains presenting awesome views.
Somewhere on the way

The landscape is just so impressive.
San Pedro de Atacama

Spending a couple of days in San Pedro to get used to the elevation. It’s 2,407 meters. Looking forward to a tour through the desert.
Valle de la Luna

What a stunning place. Like a trip to the moon.
Geysir El Tatio

Mother Earth shows her power with these geysirs. It‘s the third biggest thermical field in the world.

San Pedro - Uyuni: Trip through Desert

Hola Bolivia, here we come. Getting all our stuff packed on to of the 4x4 – our “home” for the next almost three days. Having a great group of people and are very happy with our driver Jonny.
Laguna Blanco

A lake like a mirror.
Desierte de Salvador Dali

Sand and stones as far as one can see. And these cute guys. They’re vicuñas and belong to the lama family.
Aguas Calientes

A pool full of different languages. They’re all relaxing in a hot spring. Too crowded for me.
Geisirs de Sol

Hot steam comes directly out of the ground. A strong smell of sulfur is around. We actually get to walk through the hot steam. We‘re 4580 meters above sea level. That makes breathing hard and causesOkumaya devam et
Laguna Colorada

Flamingos make really cute and funny noises. And they’re all over in this pink and green lake. Again, Mother Nature shows many of her colors.
Laguna Verde

There are no words for this beauty.
Hostel in the middle of nowhere

The whole group was so tired. We went to bed early. Now sleeping under heavy (but incredibly good smelling) blankets. It gets cold in the desert at night.
