Delicious Decay

The bus journey to Valparaiso wasn't long, only about two hours, and we arrived at Hostel El Yoyo in the afternoon. Everyone at the hostel seemed to be recovering from a heavy night, so we took it easy as well. I blogged. And we bought oven empanadas from the supermarket. Joanne, especially,...

How September 11th Could Have Been Worse

The next morning it was goodbye to Easter Island and back to the mainland. When we arrived at our hostel, '''Ecohostel''', the girl on the desk warned us that we shouldn't go outside ''because it's the 11th of September''. I was a bit confused at to why that should matter so much in...

Moai Revelations

The rain had finally stopped and the sun was out. Raphael had already left to explore the island, but we were feeling a bit rough and the ''Gato Negro'' had stained our mouths purple.

Enough Empanadas Already

The second morning we woke in Santiago was raining. It had been cold since we arrived, but this made it even worse. I thought South America was hot, but this was barely warmer than New Zealand. Apparently Chile is not a hot country and I was thinking of Brazil, people told me. We were keen...

Ripped off in South America (already!)

We arrived in Chile very tired, but there, we had finally managed to organise Couchsurfing! This meant that we were going to have to speak to people and seem lively instead of just crawling into bed. The guys who were hosting us sounded very relaxed on their profiles and in the messages we...
