Casa

Adios Latinoamérica! I'm home, safe and sound. I took the Air France flight AF443, the one that replaced the AF447 which crashed in the atlantic 2 years ago... that was creepy. Really. But I didn't crash! (as a matter of fact that was the smoothest flight for the past two weeks: no strike, lost lugguage, nor missed boarding).

Soy ahora a mi casa, and exhausted. This is the conclusion post (just before the plane picture!).
Once again, i'm happy I did this travelblog (it's quite annoying to keep updated, but it's worth it). I'm realizing now, that was a huge trip. I feel I was traveling for 3 months, all these destinations seem to be separated by weeks... Now I've got the head full of awesome memories, and I can go back to school satisfied

-Which country is the best (according to the Nelson Scale)?! Chile! -Why?! Because the weather was perfect, the people were perfect, the landscapes, the cities, the prices were perfect, and the language was understandable!
I wasn't much satisfied with Argentina, since I messed it up a bit (duration, dates, etc..) but it doesn't mater really.
Brasil was... different? No sun at all, booo, but I'm very glad I've been there, it's HUGE on every point of view (New year's Eve was craaaaaazy)

Well, that was a glimpse of a few places, in 3 countries in south america, but hey, that's how I like to travel I think. It gives insights on how to appreciate the whole world. Knowing what's going on around you, in order to have the right stance. We're all so close from each other around the globe, that it gets fundamental to me. I know being able to do all that needs a bit of luck...

Cheers and see you next time!

By the way, I'm selling Rio's subway tickets and Argentinian Pesos! Good price!

Rio de Janeiro

There was sun this morning (nothing ecstatic tho ), so I end the blog text strike!

I'm in Rio de Janeiro! Big city, mix of hills, beaches, skyscrapers and jungles. I know there's not much pictures, but with everything I heard about criminality in Rio, I'm getting a bit paranoid to take my camera with me... That's a bit sad.
Tonight is new year's eve, and there's 2 millions people awaited on copacabana with david guetta playing live for free...

The truth is I haven't seen much of the city, I rather chose to chill out and enjoy the temperature and the huge waves of Rio's beaches

A bit on advance on GMT time (and it's still 6pm here), I wish you a cheesy

Parati, RJ

Ola, here are a few pics from Parati and the suroundings. The weather isn't good so that's not cool No sun, no text. See you in Rio!

hihi, ptit anecdote en direct: ya un mec a cote de moi avec le gros look hippie, qui check ses actions en bourse sur le site de bnp paribas en allemand, pas mal nan? :p

Brasiiiil

Bom dia amigos, I'm in brasil! I missed my flight yesterday so i had to take the next one 5 hours later. But then I had the oportunity to stay and quickly visit São Paulo, before taking my bus and arriving at 4am here in Parati (please pronounce Paratchi , no one robbed me so it's cool.
I'll stay one more day in Parati and only 4 days in Rio, leaving tomorow!

I dont understand anything to portuguese language, that's my final answer, i can say você fala espanhol ? haha YES, im comunicating in spanish here, and that's quite funny...

Also... WHERE'S THE SUN HEY??? It's crappy rainny since a few hours now, not cool.

A few photos from São Paulo:

Buenos Aires!

22 hours in a bus, I arrived in the early morning arround 6am, it was alright

So i'm now in Capital Federal, Buenos Aires. It looks like a mix between NYC and Hamburg, with people speaking weird spanish with an italian accent! It's much harder to understand people here, i don't know why. Chile was really fine, just a few local words (they say gracia with no s, that isn't the right way, is it?), while here, they speak super fast, eat all the words, and have their own vocabulary im sure!

I'm leaving tomorow at 8m, flight to Sao Paulo (GRU), then I'm taking a bus to Paraty, where I stay 1 night, before going to Rio!

Going to argentina

I'm going to Buenos Aires tomorow by bus: I'm leaving the pacific and Valparaiso at 8am and arriving a Capital Federal at 8am! 24HOURS BUS TRIP YAY! Crossing the whole country of argentina, the andes, Mendoza, day and night...

coucou a tous!
je part pour buenos aires en bus (24 heures de trajet, wahou), et la compagnie de bus s'appel CATA Internacional, c'est bon signe!

Valparaiso, me gusta!

¡Heyo! so i'm now in valparaiso, the city of yawning seaguls.
I'm back from my second beach session, and now i'm all sun-burned, ¡yay! ouch..
The trip is on a much pleasurable angle now, this colorful city is chile's first harbor it's also where all navy's buildings, ships and stuff are located.
It's full of little hills, messy/tiny houses and funny funicular to link the ups with the downs (pics bellow). I would highly recommend my hostel , super cheap, adorable staff and they organise a xmas dinner tomight
Valparaiso is next to viña del mar, where you find the beaches and the casinos, and where i got my sunburns!

La poisse

Feminine noun: decribes when nothing works out because of a serie bad events, such as:
-forgeting to set my alarm clock before going to the airport, therefore, forgeting to pack stuff
-French airport security staff's strike, generating delays and sh*t.
-My backpack lost in Lima - Peru (where I coudn't even go out of the aeropuerto, but i took pics of the souvenir shops!)

BUT I MADE IT TO SANTIAGO DE CHILE CABRÓN!

I met my peruvian mom in the plane (she took care of me, helped me, i don't know why) with whom I practised my awesome spannish skills (i speak french but end my words with "a" or "o")

The weather is awesome, the people are very very sweet and nice (so far), my guesthouse is cool but I haven't got out since i'm waiting for my backpack which is supposed to be delivered here arround midday...

edit: got my backpack 2 days later!
