Thought I posted this a while ago but this is the last post of my travels….
We enter Chile through the Andes during the day. Definitely one of the highlights of actual transport since most of our busing has been done during the night (although it was super awesome to be in a bus at night in the middle of nowhere and you can actually see every star in the universe at that moment). We were...
Bariloche is to Isreali´s as Mendoza is to...
Hello. Hello Friends.
If I could compare Bariloche to any other city. It would be a mix of Denver and Switzerland. This, I did not like. It was an expensive town with expensive foods and expensive everything. We did end up partying a lot so that made it worth the while. Apparently Bariloche is the place to be for Passover. Every Israeli in South America comes here for Seder. Seder was a trip. I...

Glaciers, Fitz Roy, and the most boring two days...
So we had the luck of finding the cheapest hostel in Calafate. There are many excursions to do there but all for a hefty price. We came for one reason and one reason only - to see the Perito Moreno, a huge ass glacier.
There were two options to see the Glacier.
1. Pay a taxi 250 pesos to drive you to the park (which was one hour away) and he drops you off for two hours then takes you right...
Drum circles, steaks, and the biggest rivalry...
Que Pasaooo chicos?
Buenos Aires has been a trip! We were there for a total of 8 days and it was insane. So what do I mean by insane? Im talking huge steak dinners with bottles of wine and appetizers for 10 USD a person. I´m talking about going out clubbing until the sun comes out, and even later. This city is nuts.
The first night out we went to something called La Bomba del Tiempo. It takes...
CHE, Waterfalls, and Big City Lights
In case any of you are wondering, Cordoba does NOT rent any bicycles….anywhere. We had to take the bus to Che´s house and when I got there, was very disappointed. The house is awesome, and they have great photos and letters of him throughout most of his young life, but in the backyard there is a shop which sells anything you can think of with his face on it. Something he would not be happy...
Canyons and Mosquitos (I HATE MOSQUITOES!)
Buenos Dias peoples.
So the rest of Salta was pretty awesome. It felt really awesome to be back in a big city meaning i really fucking miss NY. I feel the curse word is necessary for that sentence. We didn’t do many touristy things there - For example, I asked the woman at the hostel for the most un-touristy thing we can do. She says that she goes to a river with her friend to hang out....
Cargo Boats, Stranded and Hitchiking
YOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
So where i last left off, I was about to head off to Lake Titicaca. They recomend in our guide book that you go to the docks yourself and book a ride. This way, the locals actually make a profit, rather than a travel agency. So Joey and I get to the docks, find a captain who says he is going to Uros (the floating islands) for 45 min, and Taquila (a bigger island with about 400...

Canyons and Children Thieves
¿Sup fools?
I hope everything is well with everyone. So Arequipa is a city of outdoor activities. When we arrived there, we spent the day walking around trying to find legit soccer jerseys. Everywhere we went sold replicas, and when we asked for a store that had authentic ones, they would send us somewhere that did not even sell clothes. Just sending the ole tourists on a mouse-hunt. We...
Cold showers and $1 meals.
Hello Everyone!
Just arrived in Arequipa, a city known for its outdoor activities. Here is the lowest Canyon in the world! I last left off at the Islas Ballestas. The islands were…smelly. Thousands of animals covered the islands. The islands had rolling hills on the tops and jagged sharp edges near the water. Thousands of birds flew and chilled everywhere, covering the island in their shit,...
LONGGGG OVERDUE!!!
Sorry guys, It has been a LONG while since I have given you an update. So the last time we spoke was right before Christmas. Xmas was awesome in Puerto Rico. Christmas Eve, we went to a neighbors house. Everyone was super friendly and the food was really delicious. Then on legit christmas, we went to a friends house - which was also super awesome and delish. I cannot describe to you the love in...

San Fran = Awesome with a lightning bolt
Buenos Dias!
I have been in Puerto Rico for a week already and time is just flying by. Before I begin my Puerto Rican Rant, I want to tell you about San Fran in addition to the previously posted photos.
First off, San Francisco is a fucking awesome city. I went with Haldon Greenburg and Aaron Zimroth. The purpose of this trip was to find an apartment for AZ because he is moving here to start a...

First blog
I want to start off by saying - What’s up? I am a person of spontaneity and exploration. I like things like science and art, therefore, I use both sides of the brain. My favorite color is blue, favorite brother is Aaron, and most hateful food - Cilantro. It will be the death of me. I live in NY but currently have all my stuff in storage and have a one way ticket to Puerto Rico with my surfboard.
