What you’d rather be seeing – Latin America | Charlie and Steve's Excellent Adventure

Six months travelling from Mexico, Cuba, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Chile, Uruguay and Argentina has resulted in the below 26 shots which we seem to keep coming back to.

The feature image above (making 27) captures our experience the most comprehensively. The image was taken while submitting Volcano Purace in Colombia and reflects the amount of hiking we’ve done in Latin America along with our love affair with mountains and wild places. But Latin America is so much more as we were to find out; enjoy.

Each image is linked to the appropriate post the image was used in.
This blogs category “what you’d rather be seeing” is where you’ll find image only posts.
