So I have spent too much time here in Ushuaia and got far too settled into a routine. Today I had organized to change some US dollars with one of Martins friends; the reason being I would get 40% more then what the bank offers on the blue dollar market. In the evening there was a couchsurfing meeting so I waited around for Jose to finish work and then go with him to the bar. Unfortunately he never arrived at the house so I set off for meeting but had a hell of a ...

So I am running out of things to talk about as each day here is becoming less and less eventful. However today I did go and book a flight from El Calafate to Buenos Aires - I had planned to bus this distance and make a few stops along the way but I then found out the bus would take 4 days and triple the price of what I paid for the flight.

Another beautiful day in Ushuaia with both sun, rain, wind and everything else in between.

In the evening I did some yoga and when Jose fi...

Today was another beautiful day in Ushuaia and as it was Sunday there were many people about. In the morning I visited the beach and then went for a walk around an area of the city I had not yet visited. Jose and his friends wanted to go on a bit of a roadtrip out to a place called Cabo San Pablo and I really wanted to join then but as I am still not feeling the best I once again had to turn the offer down and have another rest day. The rest of the day I didn't d...
