Saturday 27th April 2013 - Once we had got a little way into Argentina last night I must of nodded off pretty quickly. I woke up at about 7am to remember I've been travelling right through the night. I was straight away fascinated to see whereabouts we were so I checked my phone to see we were still an hour or so away from Rosario a city of around 800,000 population. Before we got to the city centre and picked a few people up they gave us breakfast which was basi...

Thursday 25th April 2013 - on arrival we needed to get cash in the new currency. We were able to swap R$50 straight away but I got 400,000 g out as well which is around £75, we joked how it wouldn't take much to be a millionaire. Although, confusingly a 20,000 g note would have written on it 20mil. I paid 1,000 g to go to the toilet which was an odd one as I only had large notes. We had a load more taxi banter on route to the hostel again thanks to Claire as we ...

Tuesday 23rd April 2013 - The bus wasn't the top luxury we were expecting but it was comfy enough.

An English girl looked ...

Sunday 21st April 2013 - Well we arrived in São Paulo if not on time very close indeed. The journey had flown by. I didn't even have time to get my iPod out as I had already fallen asleep. The occasional stops really panic you because you wake up confused as to it being your stop or not. The São Paulo bus station is enormous its like an airport so when we arrived we were a bit slow getting anywhere. A quick toilet break and we were searching for the taxis. A la...

Thursday 18th April 2013 - Well as expected the bus journey took a little longer than we were advised. But regardless we didn't mind. We had booked the hostel misti chill and told them we will be there for 11pm so we were worried if anyone was going to be up at our arrival time - 1am. After a short taxi journey through the cobbled streets and over the humped bridge across the river we were happy to see plenty of people awake to greet us. The hostel is located rig...
