My Trip to Patagonia, Argentina

" It´s human nature to stretch, to go, to see, to understand.
Exploration is not a choice really; it´s an imperative. "

Michael Collins

About the Trip

In 2014 my friend Eduardo (red shirt) and I decided to travel to Patagonia Argentina and do some trekking in Parque Nahuel Huapi (next to Bariloche) and El Bolsón .

Although phisically challenging at times, it was well worth it! Beautiful landscapes like no other place in the world. There is something magical about being in contact with nature, away from all the modern world distractions.

I hope one day you try it too, you won't regret it! Be sure to prepare yourself physically before travelling, buy some comfort boots, and head on for this unforgettable adventure!
