Hi all, How is everyone going? I am writing from Paraty in Brazil, 4 hours out of Rio. So yes, we finally made it. Basically our mission was to get from Puerto Iguazu to Paraty. The method: 5 busses and one taxi. Status: Complete. Left Iguazu at 8.30am (after finding out we had earlier been duped by our taxi driver in Argentina who managed to swiftly swap our hundred peso bill to a fake one!) and caught a little bus to Foz de Iguaçu (Brazilian side). During t...

It seriously must be like one zillion % humidity here! Caught a bumpy little bus to the falls which didn't take long.

Next to some pretty dodgy areas, equipped with a police man who stands at the border of the colourful ghetto and the dodgy area stopping tourists from going too far! Got some aw...

Hi everyone! The sun is back in Argentina (wooooop) and is "only" 23 degrees, but if you ask me that is defiantely hott enough!! Just got back from a trip to the museum of modern art which was a mish and a half! Finding the bus stop was more complicated than you would ever imagine but after a long wander around we found the bus stop :D once on we coasted to the museum only to stop once for the bus driver to jump off the bus to say hi and give his frie...
