During the four-day, three-night trek through Torres del Paine National Park, I met Ellen during dinner on my first day of the hiking challenge.
During the four-day, three-night trek in Torres del Paine National Park, I was able to secure a cabin for the first night, while the remaining two nights were spent in a tent at the campsite. As someone who had never set up a tent before, I was worried about how I would set it up on my own before the trip. However, upon arrival, I realized that I had been overthinking it because the campsite tents had already been set up!
I never thought that I, someone who couldn't even tell directions in Kaohsiung's Chaishan, would one day complete a four-day, three-night hike in Chile's Torres del Paine National Park.
I've finally saw glaciers with my own eyes! Even though I felt like I was about to freeze, it was still all worth it!
During my travels in Argentina, I found myself indulging in barbecue at every meal. The masterfully prepared premium sirloin at Don Julio took me by surprise with its excellence!
Today, I am either at the theater or on my way there.
The highlight of my trip to Buenos Aires was a pilgrimage to El Ateneo, considered one of the most beautiful bookstores in the world, a bookstore that has been transformed from a theater. Here, one can fully sense the European cultural influence on Argentina.
Crossing the border from Brazil to Argentina, I experienced a unique perspective of the Iguazu Falls.
The Devil's Throat is one of the hundreds of waterfalls at Iguazu and offers the most breathtaking views!
The Champions Parade, with over a thousand participants, was made up of samba schools from different regions of Brazil. Each competing team had to overcome numerous challenges to earn the opportunity to perform before the judges and the audience. The grand final parade, during which the champion team was about to spectacularly emerge, began at 10 PM and lasted until 6 AM the following morning. It was a moment when I once again experienced the electrifying atmosphere of people collectively immersed in frenzy, reminiscent of the Running of the Bulls in Pamplona, Spain, back in 2012.
