Brazil Summary
This country is a lot to talk about. We had some of our favorite moments of the trip here, and Brazil wasn’t even part of our original, or updated South America plan! Also, our scariest moment of the trip happened here…We learned the Mercader Projection is a liar, and what being hot really means. And…

Chile Summary
Chile was our first “break” from typical Latin America. All of a sudden the roads were great, buildings looked exactly like buildings in North America, especially the suburbs.

Argentina Summary
Argentina really is it’s own very different place. It’s very Western, and very European. When we arrived they were in the midst of economic turnaround, so everything was very expensive compared to other countries.

Day 856, March 10,2026
ODO: 360,150 It’s a grey morning to match our grey moods. Time to get out of this town. But first, a quick stop for some empanadas, and a lap around the skatepark to look at the graffiti. Our short drive today takes us past a large number of roadkill we cant seem to identify. Uruguay…

Day 849: March 3, 2026
ODO: 359,902 Guess what we wake up to today? More heat! We pack and leave. Being in the truck is delightful, the air conditioning gives us a break from sweating. We’ve been confirmed for a March 22 departure date from Uruguay, and if the boat is on schedule, we will be loading the truck into…
