Lizzy in Baja California
I was very lucky to be invited on a last minute trip to Mexico at the end of January. I know a fair bit of Mexico, having spent time living there, but Baja California had remained elusive so was certainly on my wish list of places to visit. After a very comfortable flight on AeroMexico’s new Dreaml... Read more»
Ali in Uruguay
Uruguay is a country which is often overlooked, but there is more to the country than most people initially believe or expect. I have visited Uruguay before, in 2011, when I saw Carmelo and Colonia. On my most recent visit I had the opportunity to return to both these areas but also spend some time... Read more»
Brazil - Claire on the beaches of the north-east

I cannot imagine that anybody who has read a Gabriel Garcia Marquez novel has not at least been tempted to add Colombia to their bucket-list. Since my first forays into Latin literature, I have been intrigued by the country, swept up in the romance and magic realism of Marquez’ Colombia. That said i... Read more»
Lizzy in Argentina
In March I was very fortunate to return to Argentina. Having previously been no further south than Calafate, I was excited at the prospect of going to the world’s most southern city - Ushuaia. My trip started with a three night stay in Buenos Aires, at the lovely Park Hyatt Palacio Duhau. I have be... Read more»
Sue in north-west Argentina
When I was invited to north-west Argentina I jumped at the opportunity. Having travelled extensively elsewhere within the country this less-visited corner had long been on my wish list. The region is known for its extreme landscapes, friendly people and excellent wine, and it did not disappoint! Sal... Read more»
