Pucón, my base for some day trips

I had my first taste of Patagonia traveling for ten days.  My trip started with a 10 hour $15 overnight bus ride from Santiago to Pucón. 

While traveling solo, I met some people at my hostel for some day trips on local buses.

I saw some Araucaria or Monkey Puzzle trees for the first time in a private reserve called Santuario Cañi

Hello from Bolivia

I've been volunteering in Cochabamba, Bolivia with a non-profit that runs children's homes for kids that are orphaned, abandoned, or not able to life with family for various reasons.
I shot some updated portraits for their sponsorship gallery.  Here's the link if you'd like to sponsor a child: http://www.ninosconvalor.org/child-sponsorship/

Landscapes from the Camino de Santiago

Hiking every day for a month across Spain gave me the opportunity to see the landscape slowly change from mountains to vineyards to lush forests. For the full series check out my website: http://www.markteiwes.com/camino_de_santiago_landscapes

I´m currently walking the Way to Santiago, 500 miles across northern Spain.
Sometime in December I will post a photo series from the trip.  For now my wife and I are putting up photos on our blog....  markbecky4.blogspot.com
