New in Ecuador

2 years ago

Hi, my name is Chip, I'm from the US but had been living in Colombia for the past 9+ years.

I'd always had this dream to travel pretty much all of SA and see what's out there, so I started a new journey to do just that. I'm in Ecuador and tomorrow the 15th I will head to Quito. So far I have been through Tulcan, Ibarra, and Atuntaqui. Each town for 2 nights, giving me a full day to explore each one.

My plan is one to two months in Ecuador, then the same in Peru, Bolivia, Chile, Argentina, Paraguay, Uruguay, and Brazil. I will stay in the northern part of Chile as it is too chilly in the south of Santiago. The same for Argentina, though I will probably visit Buenos Aires when I'm in the southern part of Uruguay.

Anyway, you can always find my blogs and photos on my website - wiegand.org and there are also links to my various social media profiles.
