"This is the end, my beautiful friend, the end". I feel like Martin Sheen, dazed and confused, staring at the ceiling in "Apocalypse Now". We have reached literally the end of the road, where one can not drive further south. After 2.5 years, ~42000 miles (~67000 km) and countless memories we...

Ushuaia, Patagonia Argentina. The southernmost tip of South America! We found a stunning wild camp spot at the end of the world. . . Follow us at : Facebook/driventowander Instagram.com/driventowander www.DrivenToWander.com

Perito Moreno Glacier in southern Patagonia. This 97 sq mile ice field is the world's third largest reserve of fresh water. Just to give you an idea how enormous this ice formation is, take a look at the second photo that has a cruse ship on the lake . We had great time watching giant ice chucks...

The biggest reason we would ship the rig to Montevideo, Uruguay and start at south is, we think Patagonia deserves more time. Most North Americans doing this kind of travel drive down like us. And by the time most reach Patagonia they are either out of time or money to really enjoy it. As you...

Patagonia, Mount Fitz Roy! . . Follow us at : Facebook/driventowander Instagram.com/driventowander www.DrivenToWander.com

There are lots of wild camping possibilities here in South America. More in Chile and Argentina then other countries probably. I am very impressed with Chile. It is not cheap but their parks are amazing. If we do it again, we would ship our rig to Montevideo, Uruguay and enjoy Patagonia first...

Watch my wife Donna "gracefully", as she put it, fall into freezing Patagonian rapids. Our good friend Rachel (www.bigao.com) and Donna had a blast nevertheless. . . Follow us at : Facebook/driventowander Instagram.com/driventowander www.DrivenToWander.com

We had no problem finding a shower in our trip. Most of the big name gas stations have one in South America. In Central America we stayed mostly in campgrounds anyway. When it comes to small narrow camper, I would not change a thing. Our rig works great for us. It is not as nimble as lighter...

Mount Fitz Roy! The sky-puncturing, rugged peaks of this mountain is an important symbol of Southern Patagonia. It is visible from miles away. We stayed in charming El Chaltén village and enjoyed its world class hiking trails. . . Follow us at : Facebook/driventowander...

Beautiful Andes! We had a great 4 hours hike at ~14000 ft (4250 m) in the remote parts of Chilean landscape. Snow-topped mountains, deeply carved valleys and giant jack rabbits were everywhere. . . Follow us at : Facebook/driventowander Instagram.com/driventowander www.DrivenToWander.com

You better watch out for the Patagonian Winds!!! :D These westernly gusts of air can even reach speeds of about 120 km/h (74 miles/h).

Hi Nyon, Happy new year. Thanks for your kind words. Our Hallmark does not have wet bath option. We do have hot water outside shower and we used it not more than handful of times. I opted out of the wet bath because of several reasons. It condenses the living space in the camper, it raises the...

Happy new year from Patagonia, Chile, a part of the world with unmatched beauty. This ancient glacier and waterfall was 3 hours hiking away from our campsite. . . Follow us at : Facebook/driventowander Instagram.com/driventowander www.DrivenToWander.com

Argentinian Patagonia! Besides the high winds, this wild camping spot near Cueva de las Manos (Cave of Hands) was as perfect as it gets.

Bolivia's Laguna Route! Averaging 10 miles/hour, it took us 4 days to cross ~200 miles. This road is a brutal assault on any vehicle. Soft, dusty, foot deep wash-board at 15,000 ft (4500 m) altitude. -10 F (-23 C) at night, icy winds are a common phenomenon here even in daytime. Some of the...
