Hourless Life: Documenting Our Global Overland Adventure

[Pacific Northwest yetti]

I remember watching them prior to my time in Peru. But had not gone back and rewatched it after I had been there, I am glad I did. For a mix of triggering my own memories, as well as being able to see some portions I was unable to do when there but now being able to place them. (* Like the cathedrals in Cusco). And even how my own perspective changed.

And I realized we ate in the same restaurant, (the view and food were great, after Machu Picchu). And of course, a lot of the same roads.

My Lake Titicaca, experience was different as well. It was cool, and worth seeing. But got the feeling we were just tourist dollars being herded to each booth.

I do not feel like that came through the videos, I just re watched. But maybe it was my own recollection,
Hopefully you will be able to "go back" with the memories and videos eventually and see it in another light.

One of our big surprises in Peru was Chavin de Huantar. So glad we did this "side trip" as we were blown away by the archeological site. We captured it in this video Not sure if you watched that one. But if you haven't been to the ruins there, I HIGHLY recommend them. They were outstanding!

I know many people love Peru and claim it as one of their favorites. I honestly don't feel I was able to give it a fair shake so to speak, and would enjoy returning someday. Thanks for the encouragement. ~ Eric

It is still surreal to us that we drove to Patagonia in our Jeep Gladiator as a family. On our way back up the South American continent, we drove to a glacier and saw one of the most amazing natural spectacles on earth, the calving of a glacier. AND we caught it on camera! This is a moment we'll never forget and hope you enjoy it with us.


If we can do this, anyone can. We're just a regular family with a dream to see the world. We took a shot and it has been an indescribably amazing journey. I'm so glad we take the time to catch it on video. I hope you enjoy this section of the journey with us and if you have any questions, I'm here for it. ~ Eric

Thanks for posting,

That museum looked great! Is it relatively new?

Seeing the glacier took me right back, I swear I could feel the wind and sun on my face, like I was there again. 1k % worth it, we splurged and kayaked down to the glacier. It was amazing, one of those pictures now hangs in my living room. Having to take a bus down there is “new” from when we visited.

It must have been fairly new. All of the exhibits were great and in good working order. Very well organized, informative and clean. Really made us appreciate the trip to Moreno Glacier that much more. So glad you got to do the kayak! That must have been incredible. Glad we could take you back to those memories! ~ E
