Travel Amazing South America

South America... the name alone conjures up an array of breathtaking images. It captures your imagination with the majestic Andes blessed with mountains, valleys and volcanoes of sheer beauty.
It seduces your senses with a lush rainforest full of life and passion. For those of you yearning to become one with this mystical continent I can tell you that it is a magical place where myth and legend continue to walk hand in hand.
I've traveled 18 months non-stop in South America. The journey took me from Caracas, Venezuela, to Ushuaia, Argentina.
Besides traveling for such a long time I also lived just over 2 years in La Plata, Argentina, and you will not be surprised if I tell you that I know South America by heart. It is an enchanting continent with a diversity beyond imagination.
As I've received a lot of questions from people of how they should prepare themselves to embark on a travel adventure to South America I decided to set up a website which can make the decision making on your part easier.
I had never been on a long distance flight when I decided one day to go and travel in South America. There were some books that had captured my imagination and I still remember that especially the shroud of mystery worked like a magnet.

Machu Picchu, the Nazca lines, the Galapagos Islands, Lake Titicaca, the rainforest, The Incas, Easter Island... there was a strong inner compulsion to experience, to breath, to touch these unknown territories. And that music, the amazing artists from Brazil. Words cannot describe the beauty of an art that is so abstract yet so compelling to the soul.
