Two carts. First time at this, but I think that should handle it for two to make the sail from Caleta Tortel to Puerto Monte. Back online in a few weeks.

This is especially true in this cabin high up in the Mt. Mulange range of Southern Malawi where I started thinking about this update. It … Continue Reading ››

Heading out to the end of the road in Chile. Bus, boat, walk for a day, then boat.
