This Summer's Travel Adventures - Intro

Drumroll please... My first blog post! 

This summer I had the good fortune to go on a two-week trip to South America with my brother and a good friend. It was an incredible trip and my first time in South America. We managed to cram a lot into our trip which meant an inordinate amount of time spent on planes. We flew from NYC to Buenos Aires, then we went to Iguazu Falls, Argentina; Lima, Peru; Cusco, Peru; Machu Picchu; and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Since it's the Southern hemisphere, when it's summer here it's winter there and we were not nearly as prepared as we should have been. We were under the impression that their winter would be like winter in Miami and this is simply not the case!  Though it was comical to see local people in marshmallow puffer jackets in 60 degree weather, definitely pack more than just a fleece and a sweater as I had done!

Individual posts about each city to come! 

And just to tickle your palates for the coming posts...
