Travel Agent for South America

Discover South America

Brasil was my first foreign destination as an 18 year old, I fell in love with the country, people and exuberant energy.  I've been back at least 14 times, for as long as two months and as little as a long weekend.  There is always something new to discover, another natural wonder to visit, an architectural gem or art installation to be found. 

As one would expect in such a vast country, there are diverse climates perfect at whatever time of year you want to go.  I've explored remote beaches, dined in neighborhoods foreigners never visit and seen the "real" Brasil that few get to.  I'll help you to do the same.

In more recent years, I've been an aspiring digital nomad and winter snowbird in Bogotá, Colombia.  Since 2018 I've been getting to know this compact yet rugged country intimately.  It has come quite a long way since my first visit in 2010.  But to fully appreciate this beautiful country, you have to get out of Bogotá, Cartagena or Medellín. 

The small mountain towns all around Colombia are the heart and soul of this country.  Whether it is the colonial plazas or the colorful coffee region towns, no visit to Colombia is complete without visiting at least one.  If you love the outdoors and hiking, then you need to visit, and I can take care of it for you.

But there is so much worth seeing and visiting in South America.  Buenos Aires, the Atacama in Chile, the Galapagos, Patagonian fjords, the Amazon basin, the Pantanal, Iguaçu, Chilean wines and of course Machu Picchu are just a few of the highlights. 

Then there are the arts and culinary traditions of the bustling cities. Botero's distinctive and voluptuous sculptures and paintings, Niemeyer's futuristic mid-century modern architecture or massive outdoor botanical gardens and contemporary art museums.  Did anyone say Baroque architecture?  It may have started in Italy, but over 300 years, it became a quintessential style of historical towns and cities all across the continent.

Did I mention the nightlife and parties?  If partaking in the offerings of the destination in this way is important to you, I have this piece of advice: the nights often stretch well into the following morning, they will outlast you.  While Rio's Carnaval may be the most well known party, there are plenty of other festivals worth knowing.

Gay travelers to South America will find vibrant and open scenes across much of the continent.  The world's largest Pride parade is not in New York, San Francisco or Madrid, it is São Paulo.  Buenos Aires, Santiago, Bogotá and Medellín also have large and well organized communities that visitors will enjoy.

Any traveler looking or a more authentic experience will enjoy their time in Santiago, Bogotá, Belo Horizonte, Salvador, Medellín or Recife.  They are just a few of the centers many travelers skip for more well known names but may find themselves wanting to extend their visit.  Each offers art, food, music, stunning landscapes or compelling stories worth getting to know..

Wherever you want to go, I will help you to travel in this spectacular continent and experience it in whatever way you hope to
