Video from El Salvador

#50_elsalvador_santaana

The lack of internet and partly bad weather in El Chaltén allowed me to finish the next two videos! This is the first one and since I didn’t spend a lot of time in El Salvador, it is pretty short as well 🙂 I will start my cruise to Antarctica today and you will hear back from me in about 10 days!

Upcoming: South America

g_around_the_world_2

22/03/2015, 23:30 I have had a lot of time to plan the rest of my time in South America thanks to the bad weather in El Chaltén. At least now I have a pretty good idea about what to do in Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay. First though, I will head to the Lake District near Bariloche before getting to Buenos Aires. See if you have some feedback for me 🙂

Live #44, Granada, Nicaragua

#64_nicaragua_granada17/03/2015 Good news! Thanks to Couchsurfing, I will have a new camera similar to my old one just before I depart to Antarctica. The weather here in Patagonia is not the best right now anyway, so I have time for some Bouldering in the area and to plan the rest of my South America trip. As the Internet is still very bad, I can just provide small updates and it takes me nearly a full day to upload those pictures from Granada in Nicaragua.

Live #43, Laguna de Apoyo, Nicaragua

#63_nicaragua_apoyo14/03/2015 I had a great day hiking to Laguna Torres yesterday and then up one of the higher mountains in the area today after sleeping at the camp ground. The wind nearly blew me off my feet this time and it was a shame I could only take pictures with my phone and GoPro fake, the views were just amazing even though I could not see Cerro Torre. The internet here is very bad, so I’m keeping the update very small as well. But at least I can get an update out 🙂

Sony A6000 “Camera Error. Turn power off then on.”

Untitled12/03/2015 Instead of trekking around the Fitz Roy Massif in Patagonia right now, I was forced to return to El Chaltén after the first night! My Sony A6000 Camera is broken and has some sort of software defect, it always shows an error message and won’t work anymore. Maybe somebody here can help me out and knows a secret trick or key combination to fix it while I am trying to get in touch with the Sony support…. I can’t go to Antarctica without a good camera!! Thanks for your help 🙂

Rumble in the jungle

#xx_lostcity05/03/2015 I just got back from the Lost City trek in Colombia and it has been pretty eventful! I won’t have the time to get another Nicaragua Live Update out now, but hope you will be entertained with this small video in the meanwhile. Fingers crossed that the guy made it to the hospital in time. We actually killed a poisonous snake on our way back as well, this place seems to be fully of them!

Live #41, León & Volcan Telica, Nicaragua

#61_nicaragua_telica01/03/2015 I’m about to start a five day trek through the jungle to the Lost City in Colombia and thanks to my tour operator Turcol, I can give you a quick update with their Wifi before I head off into no-wifi-land once more. León in Nicaragua is a beautiful city, but after having seen so many beautiful cities, I could not wait to get out again and hike Volcan Telica, which eventually became one of my personal highlights in Nicaragua! Check out this post to see why.
