I had just finished an awesome trip to ANTARCTICA! WOOHOO! Ice, penguins, seals, whales and all that kind of stuff! And now I was back on dry land - in Ushuaia, Argentina - the southernmost port in the world!
And since I had travelled more than 15000 km to get here - it seemed a shame to go back immediately. So I decided to stay on and explore Argentina! WOOHOO! The second largest country in South America, and the 8th largest in the world!
I flew from one end of Argentina to the other - from the Southernmost point to the Northernmost point - from the sub-Antarctic to the sub-tropical region - to see the amazing Iguazu falls on the Argentina- Brazil border!
Then I flew to another corner of Argentina - to explore the High Andes!
The mountains are so colourful that they are named the ‘Pintor paleta’ - the ‘painter’s palette’ - where God wiped his hands after colouring the world!
And how better to explore the Andes mountains than on a motorbike?
WOOHOO! MOTORBIKE!
The world's highest wine region, ancient Inca trails, amazing salt flats, incredible natural beauty - and llamas! This was the place where the Spanish conquistadores first entered the Rio Plata region and established a global Spanish empire - and this was also where the fierce Argentina war of Independence was first fought.
No visit to Argentina can be complete without exploring the amazing city of Buenos Aires with its amazing architecture and history - and then negotiating the COVID uncertainties of the world while making my way back across 15000 km to India dodging Omicron - via New York and Dubai, where I took in the amazing Dubai Expo 2020.
The most awesome exploration of Argentina!
Livin' la vida loca!
