The Long Way Back to Lucerne
2000 km thru Argentina’s Chaco/Pampa, from the Andes in the West to Puerto Iguazú in the northeastern part. Not really an impressive landscape, but still 1 or 2 interesting places along the way. Then back to Swizzyland.

Argentia’s Andean highland – the Puna – a fascinating landscape in the north of the country. Remote, wild, and often a little bit complicated to visit. More about it in this post.
The journey from Salta to the Valley of Calchaquíes. To the villages of Cachi and Cafayate. Then on to Santa Maria – the gateway to Argentina’s Puna.
Our journey from Bolivia’s capital, Sucre to Potosi, and Uyuni, to finally reach Tupiza. A trip thru fascinating highlands, often above 4000m. Then onwards to Salta in Argentina.

The long journey from Minas Gerais to the Pantanal. Diamantina, another mining village. Brasilia, the proud capital. Then thru endless agricultural land to Campo Grande and Bonito in the southern part of the Pantanal.
Out of Rio de Janeiro, on the way to Minas Gerais. Brazil’s mining area. A journey thru fascinating towns that accumulated immense wealth during Brazil’s gold rush. Then on to the proud capital of Belo Horizonte.
Our journey along Brazil’s Costa Verde to finally reach Rio de Janeiro. A detour to Brazil’s most kitschy village, Campos de Jordão. A visit to a car doctor for Prado in Paraty, and finally Rio.
It’s the craziest time of the year in Brasil: carnival. We attempt to survive it in Curitiba and Morretes. Then off to Ilhabela. To relax on some beaches.
Visiting the canyons in Santa Catarina Province with their trails and the lost villages. Along the coast during high season and exploring some peculiar places established long time ago by German immigrants.
