I was expecting to see Lions and Elephants in Africa, not in South America. Indeed I had not considered Puerto Madryn ( MAP) in the Chubut region of Patagonia.
Madrid and more
Madrid, Toledo, Segovia, and Real
Between 2009 and 2012 I had the priviledge to work togheter with enterprises, universities and people from Madrid, Spain. This gave me the chance to visit the Spanish capital city and its surroundings (Segovia, Toledo, Chinchon)several time in different periods of the year
Following pictures were randomly taken during this trips
Random Paths
El Bolson (MAP) , a couple of hours south to Bariloche, is a small hippie village, a calm and relaxed place where to spend one or two nights.
Welcome to Patagonia
Bariloche (MAP) is my entrance gate for one of the most impressive natural area of the world: PATAGONIA
Chile
Santiago de Chile y Valparaiso!
Rapa Nui
The most inhabited isolated place in the world happens to perfectly combine incredible landscapess, stunning nature and misterious history. There is no place in the world like Easter Island(MAP), it can't be explained simpler than that...
South America
My flight from Sydney stops in Auckland (New Zealand) for a few hours. It then leaves the continent at 16:00 and lands in Santiago del Chile (MAP) at 11:50, the same day. That means two things: time travelling is possible, and the new adventure in South America just started.
Last but not Least
After so many natural parks and beaches, a last stop in a big city is the perfect way for recovering some strength. If the city is Sydney (MAP), well you can't complain at all.

From the Bay
Byron Bay ( MAP) is a small city set on the the most eastern Australian location. Two days of relax in this calm city helped to recover from the rushing schedule I have had so far.
White Island
Whitsundays Islands (MAP) , near Airlie Beach, is an arcipelago of amazing caribbean-style islands.
Turtle Paradise
The Great Reef Barrier in Cairns (MAP) is told to be one of the most beautiful places in the world for diving activities.
