RE: Voyage to the End of the Earth: Antarctica
..."which I'm eager to return to someday despite having many others countries left on my list of places to explore."
This is one of the hardest aspects of travelling. So many places to visit, not enough time.
Me and my Filipina girlfriend will be moving out to South America next year, hoping to spend our summers in the Chilean Patagonia, and winters in Ecuador.
Beautifully written piece, accompanied by incredible photos!
Thank you for sharing.

I agree with you, it's difficult to narrow down travel destinations in the first place, and even though I'd love to return to many destinations, there just isn't enough time with so much to see and do in the vast world.
Wow, it sounds like you and your girlfriend are in for an incredible life-changing journey! How long do you expect you'll be living in South America? Chilean Patagonia was one of my favorite places I've been too (also like to go back there). I only saw a bit of mainland Ecuador since I spent most of my time in the Galapagos, but the part of the Amazon I did see was breathtaking.
Are you going to be a digital nomad of sorts?
Thanks for reading and commenting. :)
@runaway-psyche ,
We plan on living there for 3-4 years, until my father retires... Then we will have enough saved to buy a lake house next door to him ;)
Did you make a post about Patagonia? I didn't see one on your blog. Ever since Google made changes to their search engine, its not easy to discover good blogs. Thankfully, we now have Steemit.
I'm a digital, nomad/hermit. I travel and stay indoors more often than I should. That is part of the reason we will move to SA... So I will get outside more often :)
The weather here in Cebu, isn't comfortable... And there is way too much air pollution.
Thank you, for your reply as well!

That sounds like a great plan - saving money while having new adventures! I'll be keeping an eye out for any upcoming posts about your experiences there. That's great you'll be able to live so close to your dad down the line, and on a lake no less.
Nah, I didn't make a post about Chile, I just posted one photograph from Argentina. I mostly took poor quality digital photos in Chile (unfortunately) since I was conserving my film for Antarctica.
I can relate to the hermit part haha. It sounds like you and your girlfriend are poised to drastically alter your lifestyles, and I imagine the air quality and weather will be much more tolerable in Patagonia. Looking forward to your future updates on your move!
