I spent the last days of my RTW journey in Cordoba and Buenos Aires, Argentina touching on almost all aspects of my 14 month adventure. I made a few new friends, reconnected with friends I met along the way and friends back home, discovered a few new tourist spots, continued some self-care, and connected with …
Argentina proved to be a good choice to spend time in. As the days passed, I felt more comfortable and enjoyed settling into a new, slower routine. On Monday, I ventured to Western Union to get some Argentinian pesos. There are three exchange rates at this time in Argentina due to the high inflation: the …
The start of a new week meant the start of a new adventure! I gathered all of my belongings, packed up, and went to the front desk to check out of my hostel. Marie, the receptionist, recommended that I double check my overnight bus schedule to ensure my bus was leaving on time due to …

After a wonderful reprieve in the US with my family, it was time to get back to the last leg of RTW. To kick off the rest of the trip, I set my sights to Peru! My original flight was cancelled, so I enjoyed an extra two days in Houston with Mike and Brittany. It …
It’s been an incredibly busy and fulfilling few weeks on my journey. On Monday, I hit another huge milestone on my RTW adventure: 300 days of travel! It felt surreal to see such a large number of days on my travel log– it seems like just yesterday that I stepped foot on the Camino de …
