Getting Floopy Woopy Spiritual at the Farm - Colombia pt 1

After 3 months of full on fuck all, or maybe that's a touch unfair, let's say 3 months of straight up spending and indulgence, we had arrived in Colombia with the intention of treading water financially for a bit; in other words, work.

Wonder No. 2, a Wealth of Wildlife and a Missing Week - Peru

BIG-one. This post is dedicated to the whole of our 4 weeks in Peru, a month that can only be described as awe-some (I hiphen that to try to combat the word's lost power. Over excited yanks). From humpback whales to near-frostbite on Machu Picchu, Peru has been action packed to say the least.

You know where we are... We're in the Jungle (& Bolivia) baby

Bolivia, where to start... We didn't have much of an image in our heads of what Bolivia would be like, but knew it was bloody cheap, and actually, having no expectations can often be the best approach to new territory. It was also our country of choice for heading into the Amazon jungle. Sick.

Heapsa´ Water and Face-Melting Steak & Red Wine - Argentina

The second half of month one has been much more travel packed, fuelled by a desire to get to warmer and cheaper climes (having found ourselves a tad over budget from pricey Brazil and Argentina). But nevertheless, we've managed to tick off one of our first of the seven wonders, tangoed in an old cathedral in BA, pedalled around wine country, and whipped up 2300km via 4 back to back buses en route to Bolivia.

Promenading around Porto and Blowouts in Brazil

Here it is, the first of, I hope, many blog posts over the course of the next ten months. We´ll be rattling through places faster than you´d expect, but we´ll be sure to keep this thing updated.

First up was a quick one-night stop over in Porto, Portugal. It seems relatively left out of typical city break circles but unjustifiably. It´s a beautiful riverside city with plenty to see, eat & drink. One of the biggest wins is price. We could sip 2 euro demi-beers on the riverfront, and a bottle of wine at a restaurant in a primely located square was just 5 euros. There aren´t many Western European cities you can get prices like that now, so we´d highly recommend scoping it out.
