South America

From mid-2022 to the present, South America welcomed us with open arms, starting in Colombia. The warmth and friendliness of the people made us feel instantly at home. In Peru, we explored breathtaking archaeological sites scattered across the Andes, with the unforgettable Machu Picchu as the crown jewel. Peru continued to dazzle us with herds of alpacas and llamas, and beautifully crafted wool products rich in tradition and bursting with vibrant hues. Bolivia amazed us with its endless salt flats, a surreal landscape that felt like another planet. As we journeyed south, we ventured through the wild, windswept landscapes of Patagonia and finally reached Ushuaia—the end of the world.
