Thanks for letting us travel with you and in terms of me personally thanks a ton for bringing this spot of the world closer. I haven´t had middle and south America in my focus so far and just didn´t have an idea "how it looks like over there". So appreciate this granular view I could get from your videos. So cool that you made it down to the bottom!

Looking forward to the next uploads and good luck for finding a ... swan? (ment to type Goose2 but I think this is not appropriate)

Take care,
Sebastian

Thanks for the kind words Sebastian,
It makes all of the hard work worthwhile to hear from folks who appreciate the videos.

haha, thank you!
We found our new bird, whatever it is. We need to decide on a name! We'll post more info once we get it to the US and start to build it up.
Cheers,
Tim

Hej Tim!

Congrats! Good luck that the import and registration works well and the car´s condition is as expected! Are you willing to provide a little teaser? Just saw your request regarding a cabin fitted 80 (which I´m busy building with btw)...You´ll hopefully stick to the coil spring cruisers

Take care, stay safe and go on exploring!

Thank you! I'll share more as soon as I get my hands on it! If we can't get it all worked out we may have to keep looking. Fingers crossed and knock on wood it all works out!!

We visit Ushuaia, then head north to visit Chile's most southern point outside of Punta Arenas,. We visit a friend in Puerto Natales and then make our way towards Torres Del Paine, where we share some struggles of this adventure.

We visit the Torres del Paine National Park in Chile, take in the stunning scenery and then make our way north backtracking a bit into Argentina until we can cross back into Mainland Chile. Once in Chile we drive through Parque Patagonia and head south on the Carretera Austral.

Come along to enjoy more views and sites along the Carretera Austral. We visit some marble caves, take a larger ferry, and just take in this incredible place.

We continue making our way north in Chile, taking in all we can, but as we get to the more populated areas we decide because of the ongoing protests in Chile to head back to Argentina to enjoy the little bit of time we have left in South America. We find some surprise hot springs and try to just "soak" up our surroundings.

We cross our final South American Border with Goose into Uruguay. We enjoy some camping, walking around cities and start the process of getting Goose prepared to go into a container.
