Frolicking around the Fitz
When I thought of Patagonia the first images to spring to mind were those of jagged mountain ranges, endless green plains and a solitary, exposed feel.

Lago Esmeralda stole my heart
Hiking to Lake Esmerelda epitomised the Patagonia landscape. This was the 'wow walk'.
Hike Tierra del Fuego National Park
Wild. Rugged. Remote. It is here that nature touches your heart. There are five walks to choose from - we need more days here as each one is so different.

El Patron's Guatape
Thanks for the drink Pablo Escobar. But mostly, I'm thankful that spectacular Guatape is now safe for the people of Colombia to enjoy.

Salento is so cute you'll want to pinch its chubby cheeks. It's a quiet town with brightly painted houses flowing from the main square - a place to sit and take it all in.

One near-death experience on a motorbike and I had arrived in Minca. A spectacular hideaway tucked up high in the Sierra Nevada mountains overlooking the Colombian coast.
