São Paulo is a huge city. I mean, really big. We found it almost impossible to walk anywhere but the metro there is pretty bang on and the hostel we stayed in, São Paulo Street Hostel, was pretty amazing too. Museu do Futebol We took the time to visit the Football Museum at the Pacaembu […]
Learning a New Language
OK, so it comes as no surprise that learning another language takes hard work, dedication and a lot of perseverance. I’m currently trying to learn Spanish in South America and I’m learning everyday, or as close as everyday, on an app called DuoLingo and trying to speak with locals and people in the hostel to […]

Eating and Travelling
Sometimes while you are travelling there are days where you eat the most amazing food you can imagine. I’m talking Thai green curry off the streets of Chiang Mai or a Bife de Chorizo in an Argentinian Parrilla. You could even be tucking into a Full English breakfast or a Sunday Roast in my home […]
Fifa Fan Fest, Brazil 2014
So if you don’t know, I’m in Brazil for the World Cup. The video below was taken in the Fifa Fan Fest that has been set up in São Paulo amongst other cities. Watching Brazil play, and win, was a great experience. Everyone was really friendly even with a guy from Columbia, Sebastian, that was […]
La Bomba de Tiempo

Normally when a lot of people big something up to you it can sometimes turn out to be a little dull or not live up to your expectations. La Bomba however was exactly what I was expecting. Drums galore with a […]
Montevideo, Uruguay
So I feel like I am far enough away from Montevideo now to say what went on (for the sake of family and friends really). Soooo first night, someone was shot in the leg 15 paces from our hostel door. We later found out that the Police had apprehended a gang of bank robbers and […]
Colonia del Sacramento, Uruguay
After a boat journey from hell we got off to beautiful weather in Colonia. It wasn’t just raining, it was hammering it down. Luckily the hostel was a short 3 blocks walk from the port. It didn’t really stop raining for 3 days straight but mixed it up a little with plenty of thunder and […]
Buenos Aires, Argentina
So with the borders being closed to go by bus we decided to bite the proverbial bullet and fly. Sat next to a guy that was flying for the first time in his life, he was easily over 40 and asked me to collect all of the sick bags for him just in case. He […]
Iquique, Chile
Iquique is a very strange but beautiful city. It is pinned to the coast by some huge mountains that provide a beautiful backdrop. The coast sweeps round full of pelicans and sea lions basking in the sun. A great beach with some huge waves hogged by many people practicing their surfing. There really isn’t that […]
