I arrived to Puerto Montt some weeks ago. It took some time until the rain stopped and summer showed its true face, well, the wind outside seems to be trying to avoid that.
I doubt anyone actually reads this self-centered and out-of-date tabloid, but what should I do, destroy it?
PS: Nah, I said I wouldn’t, why would I. I’ll give it a couple of thoughts.
Remember that post where I mentioned the adaptation?
Here it goes.
I want to share a couple of pictures I took and really liked.
You can always check my Flickr for updates.
PS: Gloomy tuesday is far gone.
So, this time mostly skies; or what happens to be in-between.
After three months I finally selected, cropped and resized the pictures I took this summer. I will add Google Maps links to all locations involved.
Pichiquillaipe, X Región, Chile
With my girlfriend and friends we went to Puquelihue, my parent’s land in Pichiquillaipe, these are some of the few pictures I managed to take from those days. Sadly my camera was broken the first night, somehow someone’s knee used it as pillow.
Cascadas, X Región, Chile
Some days after we gathered a team and went camping again, this time to my friend’s land near Ensenada, at the Llanquihue lake and next to the Osorno volcano.
Chiloé, X Región, Chile
My sister and her friends, one of my own and myself went to Cucao, a small town in Chiloé, there was supposed to be a huge “Fiesta de la luna”, Party of the Moon, for the moment of the year when the moon more closely looks. At first we were in Castro where we visited some places and waited to take a bus to this lost town in the west coast, directly facing the eternity of the pacific ocean, after one night there we had to walk back 20 kilometers (or hitchhike, if you are lucky as my sister is) to get a bus back to civilization. Hot spot of that exhausting travel? Having a peek of a wild pudú (barely recognizable in the picture).
Argentina
Some time later with my family we went to the Argentinian Patagonia, where we traveled through the whole mountain-chain and through the desert mainly to visit an University I was interested into, secondly for vacations, it was summer afterall.
The travel was roughly said from Villa la Angostura to Neuquén.
We visited places like El Chocón, there was found the complete bone structure of a dinosaur and also fossilized footprints of the same creature.
Once we were back in Chile, we crossed the Pirihueico lake for 2 hours in a ferry, beautiful journey someone dropped even tears and not because of the chilling wind.
I beg you to understand the lack of detail of each trip, it was one hell of a work to collect these pieces of a puzzle called ‘last summer’.
PS: More to come in the next days. Less diary-like pictures.
A couple of pictures from the Basilica del Salvador and two of them from an office.
And for anyone who liked the wallpapers from the last time, here another handsome couple.
(Both have the same resolution, 1600×1200. If it doesn’t fit your monitor, ask me and I’ll gladly change it for you.)
Before I write I big post with the last happenings after my comeback, I will just post this pictures I’ve collected since that happened.
You can see mostly (the last one is still from Germany) chilean landscapes, my, already classic, shell pictures and even my cousin a couple of times.
And I also made some wallpapers from two of these images, if you want other sizes or from other pictures, I’d gladly make them.
800×600 . 1024×768 . 1280×960 . 1600×1200
800×600 . 1024×768 . 1280×960 . 1600×1200
EDIT: So, after so many comments about it I have to say that the third picture is just some kind of joke between me and my sister, since one day when we were out on the beach she kindly asked me, many, many times, to take a picture of that. I refused twice and then accepted once, it became into what you clearly see. A Something.
From the before mentioned trip to Spain. And, as I already said last time, these don’t need text.
I hope you like them.
