El Bolson / Two Day Hike 22.02.-14.03.11 When I arrived in the tiny town of "El Bolson" (27.000 inhabitants) I fell straight away "in love" with this "Hippi Pueblo"! The town lies on the foot of the spectacular mountain of "Cerro Piltriquitron". The weather was absolutely gorgeous and as there was a campground close to the village I decided to camp for the next few days. After I had set up my tent I went for a strol...

26.02.-12.03.11 Wwoofing at "La Confluencia" Even though that the Lodge "La Confluencia" was owned by the couple Mark and Ellie from California and everyone over there would talk English, I decided to work as a "Wwoofer" for one week at the Lodge.

25.12.-31.12.10 Ushuaia I had a brilliant flight from BUENOS AIRES to USHUAIA on Christmas, the 25th of December 2010. Even though that I was very tired as I only had three hours sleep I only managed to sleep for the first couple of hours on the plane. Just before we were descending for a quick stopover in EL CALAFATE the view from the plane was absolutely stunning. Mountains covered in snow in between turquoise lakes. When we arrived in USHUAIA it rai...
