Greetings! and welcome to my blog - my adventure part two begins here. After a year working in Oz, a quick stop home before I packed my bags and left for India in March 2012 to meet up with one of my super accountants. A trip on the transiberian to follow will bring me to Beijing to spend a month in China, enroute back to Melbourne.
Previously... Leaving from Cork in August 2010, my first stop is Buenos Aires to become super fluent in Spanish before travelling up through South America. I'll be posting photos and information along the way and hopefully the accountants will have something to say too!

Melbourne sparkles with graffitti – some walls are left untouched, unfortunately this wall on my daily walk to work, was gone a few days later…

Friday, December 10th, 2010We flew down from Lima to Santiago ( a wise move as it would be 2 and a half more days by bus). Arriving at the airport around 5am, we killed some time before getting a bus to Valparaiso (1.5hours north). Having heard mixed reviews about it, I was surprised how much I liked it. It has a real arty feel about it with lots of talented graffitti artists and very pretty architecture.
I ended up staying 4 days here – checking out the nightlife on Saturday night, then a walk by the port on Sunday and going to nearby Vina del Mar for some beach time and a bit of shopping. Our hostel Casa Kreyenberg was nice, more like a guest house though and the lady who owned it was a bit overly obsessed with cats but they did have a great breakfast!
I really liked our first stop in Chile. It has a very European feel, like going back to normality. The prices reflect this aswell but I´m enjoying it all so far. It is a bit cooler here than up north but I still managed to get burnt at the beach!
