Back in Vicente López, we get bored after a few days. Plus, it keeps raining. We decide to rent a car again for a week and take public transportation to EZE. After over 2 hours...

Here is a post with more pictures. I thought I should also share the beautiful photos of flora and fauna that Norbert took on our trips on the blog.

3 days of doing nothing are enough. After many kilometers on a bumpy road, Norbert now wants to go hiking in the mountains before we head to Buenos Aires on the weekend. We...

... is coming to an end. After 2 weeks and 2,000 km, we have to return the car in Tucumán in 2 days. South of Cafayate, RN 40 is now perfectly built. Tourists from the south...

The next morning we made another attempt to reach 'Abra de Acay' or at least 'Puente del Diablo' (according to Google, about 40 km and 50 min away) via Ruta 40, this time from...

Eigentlich war das alles ja andersrum gedacht, aber so geht's natürlich auch. Von Salta aus durch ein paar unscheinbare Dörfer und kleinere Städtchen bei El Carril auf die 33...

The next morning, after breakfast, we set off on Ruta 40 heading south. Google estimates it takes 3 hours and 20 minutes for the 145 km to Cachi. We add 50% for the known poor...

Here everything is made of salt: the walls of the stalls...

On the recommendation of a friend, we took a bus from Humahuaca to Iruya. The 3-hour journey is truly adventurous. Continuous gravel road, tight curves, steep switchbacks, and...

We arrived in this city in the early afternoon after a 4-hour leisurely drive with many photo stops on RN 9 from Salta. Our very nice hostel is located in the upper part of the...

.... about 1 1/2 hours drive from Salta, on RN 51 past the airport always straight. The road is in good condition, a few harmless water crossings can be easily overcome, even...

Capital of the province of the same name. We arrived at our Airbnb accommodation, located south of the city near the airport, in very changeable weather. The road in front of...

.... our next destination, about 4 hours bus ride from Catamarca. The only remarkable thing about this city is the huge pedestrian zone that stretches over several 'cuadras'....

... or simply 'Catamarca' is our next destination. Taking the bus in the afternoon from Cordoba, the journey was supposed to take about 6 hours, but it ended up being 7. For the...

... nothing works here. Everywhere you go, you will be asked for your ID number, especially online. Here, the ID number refers to the number on the Argentine ID card, which is a...

There is always a reason to celebrate. We are simply happy to be back in Córdoba and that my foot is feeling better. Of course, 'Pizzería Italia Resto' is the perfect choice,...

After my leg kept me awake for almost the whole night again, I decided to test the local health system once again. The last experience, back then with Norbert's swollen cheek at...

.... to Córdoba! When booking, we noticed that there is a third airport here besides EZE (international) and AEP (primarily domestic flights): El Palomar (EPA). From there, we...

The past few days we have spent doing what you can also associate with vacation: sleeping in, eating, drinking, putting your feet up. Well, we also celebrated the new year on...

On the road with Schulz&Schulz Well, unfortunately my leg is bothering me more than we would like, so Schulz&Schulz are our constant companions. But we don't want to...

Finally, let's go! On the first Christmas Day, it really started. From TXL to Madrid with a one-hour layover, then on to EZE. Unfortunately, we only left Tegel with a two-hour...

Kaum zu glauben, dass wir erst seit 12 Wochen wieder zurück sind, so sehr hat uns der Alltag wieder. Aber Planung und Vorbereitung der nächste Reise sind schon in vollem Gange. ...
