We are home. It's raining. The news is flooded with flood reports. Today there is no excursion to a national park, no visit to a museum. Unpacking and sorting mail, figuring out...

We have breakfast as the first guests at the hotel. The wind blew over the lake all night long. The sunrise fascinates us once again. The road to the airport is empty, it's...

Cathedral of Bariloche

It is raining as we have breakfast. The sun is shining as we leave Esquel on Ruta 40 at around ten o'clock. The result is snow-covered Andean peaks and a double rainbow that...

Actually, we believe we have seen everything before: Andes, lakes, cattle, horses, and roads with and without asphalt that lead to infinity. But we can't help ourselves and...

Shopping at the supermarket, bananas, a large bottle of water, and something to snack on. I still have plenty of money. The cashier looks at the 1,000 peso bill, checks it, and...

Esquel wakes up with 0 degrees Celsius. During breakfast, we see the breath of people on the street. Our trip on a bumpy road into the surrounding mountains takes us through...

The whole night is stormy. It rained into the bedroom - but only on the floor. We don't feel quite comfortable. No wonder. The long journey was in vain, because besides Lago...

740 kilometers on Ruta 40. Mainly through a steppe, with the Andes on our right. Our landlady gave us a decisive tip when we said goodbye: Glaciares. So we make our way to El...

Sunrise is later. We leave San Martin de los Andes at 9:00 am. It is dark and thick clouds hang over the lake, which we remembered quite differently. A short detour to Cerro...

We thought that there are no more increases. But the surroundings of San Martin prove us wrong once again. Actually, we were looking for a small waterfall, but it was not easy...

We are moving to the hotel. At the laundry, they don't offer me Yerba Maté. Then we go up the mountain to a viewpoint and to the Isla Bonita. We don't have distance information....

We decide to stay two more nights in San Martin - but not in the cabin we rented, but in a hotel near the town. I drop off our laundry at the laundry. Immediately I'm offered a...

Eine Stunde Zeitverschiebung. Wir wachen später auf als gewöhnlich. Der Blick auf den See ist nicht üppig. Eine Wolkenschicht liegt über ihm und verbirgt die Sicht auf die...

Our accommodation is near a main road. But the traffic decreases after midnight. Anyway, we have to wake up unusually early. Our host has already prepared breakfast, ordered a...

After a warm farewell from our hosts, who withstood our nervousness, we finally get the chance to visit the Immigrants Museum in Nueva Braunau. Excellently preserved...

The weather is typical for the area and appropriate: it's raining and the sun only occasionally makes an appearance. But the sky opens up every time we want to visit a church....

The day begins with a foggy landscape and a great breakfast. It starts raining too early, even though it was more like drizzling compared to the experiences in Chamacó. Our...

In the morning, the rain has stopped. Thick fog still hangs over the landscape, gradually taking shape. A rainbow announces that it will be a beautiful day. The road back to...

It has been pouring all night. The wind drives the waves of the lake onto the beach. A constant noise like on a highway. A day that can be given to the rabbits. Because that's...

There is definitely no need to go to Entre Lagos. That became clear quickly. But the journey there was worth it. We passed through Puerto Octay once again. Truly "retro", but...

The day offers everything: rain, sun, rain, and sun. It ends late after a long conversation with our hosts. After visiting a modern supermarket (what a contrast to the markets...

The Andes pass us by, once again we see the Uyuni Salt Flats - this time from a bird's eye view. Otherwise, a few settlements and facilities here and there. We arrive in...

On the last day in Bolivia, we take it easy. Gradually, we look forward to being at sea level tomorrow. It's supposed to rain there. But a shopping tour is a must. But only in...

It is thunderstorming at night. We have to go to breakfast in rain clothing. But then it's all over. We carefully walk up the slippery steps of the Inca trail with our backpacks...

Going even higher: 4,255 m. After a stop in Copacabana, we take a boat on Lake Titicaca for an hour to Isla del Sol. After a lunch with traditional dishes, we are allowed to...

Heute besuchten wir Projekte in den Außenbezirken von La Paz. Ein Kinderzentrum für Kardiologie und ein Internat. Begeistert berichteten uns die Mitarbeiter von ihren...

City tour with shoe shiners. A worthwhile project. Vamos juntos (vamosjuntos.de) For the shoe shiners and the tourists, because both practice changing perspectives. A volunteer...

It is still quite cold during the early departure by plane to La Paz. The thunderstorm announced by the weather report for the afternoon is still awaiting. La Paz is initially...

Bahnfriedhof, Salz- und Lama-Museum, erstes Salzhotel der Welt und der Salar de Uyuni mit Sonnenuntergang. Mehr ist in diesen Tag nicht hinzupacken.
