South America June- July 2010

Site updated on 14 Jul 2010

Stephen and Paulie headed off on June 23rd to South America. We wanted to catch up with Nick who had been living in Chile. Alas, always a magnet (or creator) of drama, Nick broke up with his partner Carolina just as we arrived in Chile. So home he heads. So, it tuned out to be a stressful trip with moments of fun.

Olivia headed off on her own trip on the the 21st to San Francico with pal Chloe.

The trip started out in Argentina, included a day visit to Colonia for their 1st anniversary, and ended with Chile. Paulie retuned home on July 7th whilst Stephen stayed on with Nick to the 12th.

In Chile the guys visited the Atacama desert in the north and Valparaiso on the coast near Santiago. These 7 pages of shots should give you a taste of their adventure. There are a few video snippets too.
