La Paz was one of the most unique cities that we had ever been to. I loved the mountainous landscape with hills of houses everywhere in between. We did have to get used to the elevation, which wasn’t the easiest, but we honestly loved our time there. I didn’t really know what to expect from the food scene in La Paz, but I quickly learned how vast the food scene was, and how elevated (no pun intended) the culinary scene here really is. Ru and …
We loved our time travelling to Uyuni, Bolivia, to visit the world’s largest salt flats. We went in the low season in August 2026, and we had an incredible time. For our trip, we spent 2 days in Uyuni, exploring the city on the first day and going on a 1-Day Salt Flats tour on the second day. Now, we spent a lot of time trying to decide where to stay in Uyuni. Our main two options were staying in the city itself or out …
When visiting the Salt Flats in Bolivia, there are two popular options to choose from. I honestly really didn’t know much about these tour options beforehand, and I wish that I had looked into them more. I figured that 2 days would be enough time, as we were booking a bunch of flights in a row (multi-leg journey). We allocated 2 days in Uyuni to see the salt flats over a weekend in late August. It was only after booking the flights that I learned …
Travelling to the Salt Flats in Bolivia has been a bucket-list experience for me, and I was lucky enough to visit for a weekend in August 2026, during the dry season. I loved our time exploring Uyuni and the Salt Flats. The Salt Flats in Bolivia are the largest in the world, and it truly is a wonder to see them up close. We spent the weekend in Uyuni, dedicating one day to exploring the city after we arrived, and the second day we went …

My partner and I stayed in Argentina for 2 months in 2026, and going to Patagonia was high on our list. We were there in June, which is the autumn season in the Southern Hemisphere. We didn’t want to venture too far south, as we didn’t have the right clothing for a really cold destination. After some research, Bariloche became top of …
San Telmo is a great place in Buenos Aires to enjoy a selection of craft beers. My partner and I are craft beer enthusiasts ourselves, and over the course of our stay we were able to find our favourite craft beer bars in the San Telmo neighbourhood. Each bar listed is quite unique, and they all had their own different vibe. I personally enjoy sour beers, and there was only one place on this list that did offer that. My partner, however, enjoys darker beers …
We had the best time exploring San Telmo in the spring of 2026. We stayed in San Telmo for almost 2 months, and we absolutely loved our time there. There is so much to explore in this neighbourhood, and we soon began searching for our favourite local spots, and wow, this area does not disappoint. Although San Telmo has a famous Mercado filled with many neat places to eat, we often found ourselves dining out of the main tourist hub. We did have to get …
We were so excited when we finally made the decision to travel to Buenos Aires in 2026 and live there for 2 months as digital nomads. But then came the big decision – Where to stay in Buenos Aires? After some deep diving into the Facebook groups to get some local perspectives and searching online, the same three areas kept popping up: San Telmo, Palermo, and Recoleta. These three hubs all have a different feel and can cater to different travelling styles and needs. We …
Colonia del Sacramento is a true gem to visit in Uruguay and absolutely worth a trip, no matter what time of year! We spent just a couple of days exploring this city while slow travelling in Uruguay. We took the bus from Montevideo each way and were impressed with how many buses are available to get to this seaside, quaint city. Spending 2 Days in Colonia Del Sacramento is a great amount of time to take in this city, especially as it’s also a quick …
When researching things to do in Buenos Aires, you’ll most likely hear about the famous San Telmo Sunday Market. We stayed in San Telmo for two months as digital nomads in 2026, and I must say that this market really is worth the hype. In fact, we actually went to the market multiple times as it was only a few minutes’ walk away from our Airbnb. There are hundreds of stalls that are set up just for the day, and you can spend hours strolling …
