We left The Great Smoky Mountains National Park around noon on Wednesday. As you can see our route changed a bit. Some of our reservations were cancelled in Arizona due to fires. So, we high tailed it to Colorado stopping only for fuel and food. I didn’t get any sleep and drove the entire day Wednesday, Wednesday night and most of Thursday. Jess hopped in for a few hours here and there giving me a few breaks. You also might notice there is a picture of Jess driving and not me. That’s because Jess slept most of the time :) . Luckily I had some good driving tunes and coffee to keep me awake. We did get to stop and check out Cadillac Ranch outside of Amarillo, Texas which was a cool piece of art.
We got to the campsite late Thursday afternoon and went to sleep pretty early last night. We did get to meet our great camp neighbors who are from Minnesota and travel the U.S. every chance they get on their motorcycle while pulling a trailer tent. They have been doing it since 1990 and had some great tips and ideas for camping/the camper and cool recommendations for areas in the U.S.
Jess and I woke up at at 4am to hike around the Sand Dunes at Great Sand Dunes National Park. For the first hour as the sun was coming up we were the only people in the park, that we could see at least. The Great Sand Dunes in Colorado are the tallest dunes in North America. Such a surreal natural beauty.
Now to take a nap in the hammock…

This is Part 1

I’m currently planning on going to Europe in December to spend Christmas with my German family. One of my American friends from boarding school will be around because he is working in Germany for a year but not going home, and so I’ve invited him to Christmas with my uncle. Because of the way the holiday, and New Year’s Day, falls in the middle of my Sun-Thurs work week, it’s very easy to take off the next week as well, and so we’re now planning a little jaunt around German speaking Europe. It’s all very tentative, but I’ve started looking at prices and things to do around and routes to take, and I map the itinerary below:
It’s fun because it takes us through every Germany speaking country: Germany, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, and Austria, and because it is pretty short, with the maximum travel time less than 6 hours. We would have about nine days to do it- probably the first four going quickly point by point and then a slower five in Austria. Who knows if it will materialize or how much of it we will do, but it looks like a lot of fun!
In getting excited for this trip, I started thinking of other overland tours I would like to take, looking into whether or not they’re possible, and fantasizing about when I could do them, who with, and adding extra fun components like making a documentary of the journey or something. It all sounds up in the air and like a dream, but I’m sure I will actually do at least one in the next five years. I always say, “always be dreaming 10 amazing things, then if you only accomplish 1 or 2, you’re still being amazing!” So, I’ll add these to my list of amazing ideas and see where they go.
So without further ado, the trips!
The W®est of South America
This trip would hit all of the things I wanted to do in South America but haven’t yet. It hits three of the four countries on the West of the continent, as well as the rest of the Spanish speaking countries I’ve yet been to, so I call it the W®est trip. It would start in Buenos Aires where I would see my wonderful Italian relatives that live in the Capital. I would then head up to the triple border of Argentina-Paraguay-Brazil to see the Iguazu falls, which are the last waterfall on my list of the top 5 (the others being Niagara, Angel, Gullfoss, and Victoria). I would then head up through Paraguay to Bolivia, stopping to revisit the family of a friend I stayed with in Santa Cruz, the Potosi Salt Flats, and the Mile High city: La Paz. I’d then head into Peru, spending time admiring the Andes, and of course seeing Machu Picchu near Cusco. I’d then head up through Ecuador before finishing in Bogota, Colombia!
The yellow highlighted bits are “optional” thoughts that I would consider depending on time. The first is to explore Argentine Patagonia, supposedly one of the most beautiful places in the world. The second is to take a flight to the Galapagos islands (or maybe Easter island?) from Ecuador. A third one not included on the map would be a quick jaunt over to Suriname and French Guinana- so I could officially say I’d been to every country in South America!
Bonus trip (I haven’t put too much thought into but in talking with some friends, thought to include): Southeast Asia- somehow incorporating Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, and maybe Myanmar?

Good wood - beautiful cabins in even more beautiful surroundings. I’m lucky enough to have been to Patagonia, a truly sublime part of the world, just a shame I didn’t know about ‘Aka Patagonia hotel’, which is located on a rural site north of Puerto Natales, a Chilean port city in southern Patagonia. By Chilean architects studio Larrou.
