Camping between sea and desert
After some time in AirBnBs and a hostel, we were missing our own little home away from home: our tent. So when we left Valparaiso, we had our mind set on visiting national park Pan de Azucar. Mainly because of the day hikes into the desert you can undertake right from your tent at the…

A small journey through our route in South America (Part 2: Chile)
In our previous post, I explained that we focus on the destinations that require most planning. One of the appeals of a world trip to us is the aspect of feeling completely carefree. That’s why we are keeping our options open as much as possible. However, budget-wise it is sometimes better to book in advance and…
