Ever said to yourself, “Damn, I should move into a van and drive it from Argentina to Alaska… yeah, that’d be sweet!”

Well, have we got a deal for you! Turns out in about 6 months we’ll be in Argentina, and we’ll have the perfect vehicle ready for you to take over!! Plus, you don’t have to wonder and worry about whether the vehicle is in good shape or not – this baby is tried and true! It didn’t make it all the way down there by chance. And, what better written history of its life that the very blog documenting it birth and subsequent travels! (more…)

How To San Gil

Drive over insane, semi-littered, single-lane, winding, mountain pass road like a maniac 4 times
Watch wife swim a class 5 rapid on the Rio Suarez… underneath the raft
Go very, very budget bungee jumping
Swim in a giant waterfall
Drink lots of beer and play a game where you score points blowing stuff up by throwing things at explosives
Go rafting again. Repeat class 5 but without your guide, backwards
Walk on water in a local pool
Get tattoos in the middle of Colombia

Ups – Epic Climbing, Awesome People, and Beautiful Country

We finally left San Gil after staying there for far longer than we had planned. We drove to Villa de Leyva, a beautiful little colonial town surrounded by mountains.
