We finished our stay at the ranch by having breakfast at 9am, and hanging out with their dog and sheep-dog until our 11:30am transfer arrived.  We all knew we had roughly 24 hours of travel ahead so we were enjoying our last bits of fresh air for a while It was about an hour to…

We all enjoyed a slower morning, having breakfast available from 7am-10am and then having to checkout at 10:30am.  After breakfast, we all made sure to go the atm 70m from the hotel as Montevideo was our last major city in Uruguay and we wouldn’t be able to in Mercedes (Uruguay is also one of the…

We all got to enjoy the included breakfast at the hotel before checking out to go back to the port at 8:45am. This time we were taking a public bus. The bus was supposed to be leaving at 9:30 and while usually we could start loading the bus earlier, the bus hadn’t arrived yet. Once…

We took a bus to a port at about 6:55am for our 8am ferry but had to wait until about 7:15am to be able to check our luggage on.  We all got coffee before getting onto the ferry (the coffee being nice but extremely overpriced) and then all boarded the ferry.  We had to do…

We all had to be ready to leave at hotel at 5:30am in the morning and no one was too happy about it.  We had a short ride to the airport, where we were all expecting to have a long line through checking the luggage and immigration (given our flight was at 8 but our…

This next day consisted of heading to a public bus at 6:30am, getting on it at 7:30am and not getting off the bus until 7:15pm (8:15pm Argentinen time). We were all ready to get off the bus at hour 9, especially since it wasn’t like it was a long boarder crossing (1 hour and 5…

Prior to getting to the boarder, we had all been pre warned that there was to be no talking out of turn, hats to be worn, or any sign that we weren’t taking things seriously as the Chile boarder tends to be the strictest in all of South America.  Upon exiting Bolivia (the easiest in…

We were meant to be leaving the hotel at 8:30 but we didn’t leave until 8:45 due to me accidentally sleeping in and only waking up to reception calling my room phone at 8:35 (oops 😬) However this didn’t end up affecting anything as we still arrived in Uyuni at 12:30.  Everyone but me had…

We had a four hour private bus from Sucre to Potosí. On the way we made a stop at a brick built bridge that seemingly had no purpose anymore as there wasn’t much water below it. Our ceo explained that when it was built it had use but now due to global warming and the…

We arrived to our hotel in Sucre at around 8am. There was 11 in our group and our ceo had told us that there’d be one single room for boys and one for girls and that she wouldn’t be deciding who got it and we could decide amongst ourselves who got it and if we…
