As we make our way across the border into Chile, it’s hard to believe that 8 weeks in Argentina has passed us by so quickly.

With February 14 upon us already, this year is f.l.y.i.n.g on by! And what better excuse to spoil our loved ones (or ourselves) with a little sumptin’ sumptin’ this Valentine’s Day to show our appreciation. Because we need a marked day of the year to do so after all… And so, if you’re anything like […]

Renowned for the incredible hiking that’s literally on its doorstep, El Chaltén is a quaint little village in Argentina’s south-west. It’s set at the foothill of the Los Glaciares National park and is the perfect base for a few days to enjoy all it has to offer. You’re likely familiar with the logo of the […]
