So Long, South America

We're heading off to New Zealand, but we wanted to reflect briefly on the amazing things we've experienced during our time in South America.

As we looked back on past posts from this amazing continent, we realized a key element wasn't as pronounced and essential in what we'd written as it was for us in daily life. And drawing on some of the travel blogs that have inspired us the most: Wheresoever We Go & Dogs of the World, we'll try to rectify it in the best way we know.
