I am planning to travel to South America in August. Does anyone want to plan this trip with me?
So far I am planning alone but am a little nervous about traveling all over S. America by myself. I am a college educated, 22 year old, male, white New Yorker. I want to start in Bogota Colombia and travel south to Peru, Brazil, Chile and Argentina. So far I have thought I would fly into Bogota and out of Buenos Aires four or so weeks later.
Does a trip like this interest any other American?
Does anyone have any tips to make this adventure safer and more fun?
I would rather have a Travel Companion to add to the safety of the trip, and also split costs like hotel rooms or car rentals.
Has anyone done something like this and have knowledge to share? Even if you have specific information on one region in South America I would love to hear your input.
Thanks everyone!
No, sorry. This August I'm flying to New York!!! But dont be afraid to travel on your own, stick to known places, read your Lonely Planet guide and do some research before you come to South America. Someone said going to Patagonia, I agree it's the most lovely place in the earth but not in August when its the middle of winter and you freeze like a popsicle.
Check the tons of resolved questions in all of the countries you will visit, I am sure you will find a lot of answers to your own queries.
