Argentina gets a bit of a bad rep for being an expensive country to travel in. I've spent over 3 months of my time in South America in Argentina and contrary to the critics, it's been much more affordable than I envisaged...

If there's ever a decision I'm glad I made, it's to travel solo across South America. In 9 months I lived one dream and one epic adventure...

Spending a week in El Chalten, Patagonia, one of my favorite hikes has got to be Loma del Pliegue Tumbado. For some reason, this hike gets skipped a lot. But the panoramic views of the snow cones mountains of Patagonia are absolutely worth an extra day...

As I traveled around the country, on some of the longest bus journeys, I fell more and more for a country that I could call home for 3 months. From sharing mate and socializing, embracing the 'shh' pronunciation of 'llamas' in words, devouring the best (and cheapest) avocados, summer night asados and barbeques...

Refugio Frey is one of the most spectacular hikes from Bariloche. Either a day trip or an overnight stay, these snow-topped mountains are stunning.

On average, travel in Patagonia was one of the most expensive months of my South America trip. In this blog post, I'll take you through exactly what I spent travelling through Patagonia for one month.

Here's are some of the most amazing hikes to do whilst exploring Bariloche a must-do hiking destination on your itinerary for Patagonia...

It's hard to put into words. El Chalten had everything Patagonia could offer. From cascading waterfalls, sparkling sapphire lagunas, towering snow-coned mountains, thundering glaciers...

If you're in Buenos Aires, a really fun and easy way to explore the city is hopping on a bicycle. Relatively flat, there are a number of cycle lanes and if you're there over the summer months, traffic is considerably less as Argentinians head off for their summer holidays. A free bike is a perfect way to explore Buenos Aires for an afternoon.

Mount Fitz Roy, also known as Laguna de los Tres, is one of my favourite hikes of South America. Stunned by the sapphire blue waters, waterfalls cascading from gleaming glaciers and drinking from streams with water so clean, I'm on a quest to convince everyone just why you should go...

Trekking on Perito Moreno Glacier is not only one of my highlights of Patagonia, but of my whole trip so far! It's a feeling I never could have imagined and I feel so lucky to have had the opportunity to walk, dance and jump on a glacier...

Of all the cities I travelled to in South America, Buenos Aires is one that I can see myself going back to again. Having spent over 3 months in Argentina, it's a country that I've grown to become very fond of...

The last time I left you, I was absolutely loving living in Buenos Aires. February came around and I still couldn't bring myself to leave the city...

When I left you last I was on a serious high after just having had the most amazing month in Patagonia. A dream come true, I went into the New Year with feeling elated and the more fulfilled than I could have imagined...

December took me everywhere from the thundering glaciers in Torres del Paine to trekking on ice in El Calafate, hiking over 300km, 24-hour bus rides through deserts, bouldering, climbing, sliding, running, jumping to the tops of mountains, drinking the purest water...

Last month I left you debating whether I'd be exploring Chile or Bolivia. Toss of a coin and Bolivia became next month's adventures. And boy, were you an adventure Bolivia...

I love flying to new destinations but when it comes to buying a flight, I hate being priced out by an airline ticket! Scouring tickets online, I almost decided not to fly to South America until I stumbled upon Norwegian Airlines...

Diving into the local cuisine is one of my favourite things to do on my travels. I don't know about you but the hardest part of this is knowing where to go and what to eat. Getting stuck into tourist traps is so easy...

I'll be honest with you, I'm not the biggest fan of border crossings overland. Initially really hesitant as a solo traveller to cross into Bolivia from Argentina, however, I decided to give it a shot. If you're starting in Salta or one of the northern Argentinian towns in Jujuy, here's what you need to know...
