On paper La Paz is . . . How should I put it? A bit of a dump. The streets are filled with rubbish, the traffic is horrendous and LOUD, you can physically taste the pollution, there is seldom not a protest of some sort taking place and it’s all just very hectic! Doesn’t really… Read More La Paz, Bolivia – Is it really worth visiting?

With neighbours like Brazil and Argentina that are such well known and desirable destinations it tends to be overlooked, but as we were so close we thought we may as well pop… Read More My guide to a quick trip to Uruguay
Travelling in your late 20s is a lot different to traveling in your early 20s. Not only do you have different priorities and see things from a different perspective; it also has a different effect on you pysically. When I was younger I could party all night and get up after only a couple of… Read More My Backpacking Beauty Essentials for Staying Young
Our next stop after visiting Iguazu Falls was the capital of Argentina, Buenos Aires. We were really looking forward to this as so many people had told us we would love it and how amazing it is! I’m going to be controversial here and probably shock a few people, but I didn’t love BA. I… Read More Buenos Aires – Argentina
Its my first day in Argentina and also my first day of straightening my hair since we left home 4 weeks ago! It feels so nice not to have a full on lions mane on my head!
