The Futelefú Story
2008-01-24 01:55:00 Roco, who met me at the Argentinian border to take me to Futelefu seemed nice at first, he laughed at me when i started frieking out at border control and wrote my name and country of origin and date of birth all in the wrong blanks, and he volentarilly filled it out correctly for me and even signed it for me! When we got to futelefu he dropped off all of the other 5 or 6 passangers at their doorsteps, he knew where they lived, kissed each on the cheek as they left the van. I asked him to drop me off at the doorstep of the officina de trourismo and tried to strike up a little bit of conversation. He said nothing and instead of the officina de tourismo he brought me to the doorsteps of a locotorio that had techno music blaring into the street and this dude waiting for the van who was wearing a gulligins island hat, a wife beater shirt and board shorts. When i open the car door he was immediatly in my face, in english ¨are you looking to go rafting, i can give you a really good deal¨ ...

Lago Gutierez
2008-01-15 21:04:00 There are tents scattered every-where: car-campers, children who are running around the lake, young partyers with guitars and joints to smoke. People have populated the beach: sunbathing within the midst of passing patches of sun. Everybody is afraid of touching the water. I am the only one out of hundreds who has tried to go for a swim and they look at me as if i am the lockness monster once I climb out of the lake.2 fly-fishermen in the waders, walking out to their hips. One of them is smoking a cigarrete, the other keeps worrying about the water that is about to splash into his waders as he is fighting with a fish.An endless line of climbers who are all making their way to the top of the same mountain (Refugio de Frey).

Hitchhiking Around the World
2007-10-29 13:33:00 One of the best ways to get to know the people and the culture in a country is through hitchhiking. The best book about hitchhiking I have ever read is Kinga Freespirit’s Led by Destiny. Kinga and Chopin began with nearly $600, 2 backpacks, a one-way ticket, almost no plans and many dreams. Her book is an amazing story starting in Poland with a one-way ...

#1 Hitchhiking - The Art of the Game
2007-09-13 02:39:00 Hitchhiking, or also known as “good old thumbing”, “hitching”, “autostop” (a term mainly used in Eastern Europe) or “thumbing up a ride” (a term I did not know before), is a great way of travelling around. I believe this mode of transportation to be so kool that I have decided to write a short tutorial about it (I could have written a whole book, believe me!).If you have been following my blog (click here for old posts), you would have noticed that I already have quite some hitchhiking experiences. I have been hitchhiking all across Europe, both East, West and Central Europe. I also hitched in England, Ireland, Russia, China and Mongolia. In retrospect, I would have loved if somebody would have introduced me to some of the fundamentals behind hitching when I started. It would have saved me a few days waiting on the side of the road with my proudly self-made signs. Unfortunately, there was not a lot on the Web and I did not know any hitchers, so I had to all figure a...
