Chile 🇨🇱
At the most southern part of the world, Patagonia. The region resides between Chile and Argentina, and perhaps the fifth element of planet earth.
This is our 7 days trip to southernmost part of Chile | Patagonia. When I was a kid, I heard the name “Patagonia”, never had any idea of this place. This place is out of this world, unearthly. Cold and wind all year around, few people live here, when you arrive here you know you are traveling through another world, unlike your home. Here you can't leave your footprints behind, the unique Patagonia remains untouched for travelers yet to come, always waiting to be touched. Like many others, I dared to capture its beauty, but truly Patagonia can't be revealed without your own presence.
Our trip began from Santiago, Chile. From there we flew Puerto Montt, rented a car and explored the area for 2 days. We then flew further south to Punta Arenas, rented a car, road trip to Puerto Natales and Torres del Paine in 4 days.
They say, you can’t leave your footprint in Patagonia, but I left part of me there I never want it back. That invisible me keeps calling since -Come Back! My body, my mind, my past, my memories; nothing makes sense here. It’s another world where I was never born, never left
Right now, we are more experienced than ever before. Right now, we are the youngest than we will ever be again. We must get crazy, do things we were asked not to, take our chances.
“Why do you go away? So that you can come back. So that you can see the place you came from with new eyes and extra colors. And the people there see you differently, too. Coming back to where you started is not the same as never leaving.”
What to do here: Just keep driving. The road will take you to another world, it will reveal the stories it never did to anyone else.
