    The Southern tip of the South American continent is one of the few places left on the planet where you can say that nature can truly follow its course. Patagonia, shared between Chile and Argentina, is a land of vast open spaces, wilderness, silence and towns and cities that seem to defy the often inhospitable environment.

    The beautiful expanses of Patagonia managed to conjure up feelings of affection even in hardened criminals (and edventurers) like Butch Cassidy and Sundance Kid. The steppe-like plains, the rainy Andes and the unmistakable flavor of the local culture make Patagonia one of the most fascinating destinations in the world. So pack your bags with warm clothes and study shoes and follow the adventurer’s guide to Patagonia.

    A beach is so much more than a stretch of sand on the shores of a sea or ocean – it is a place with its own stories, atmosphere, regulars and history, and we can easily say that there are no two beaches alike in the world.

    South America’s miles and miles of coastline and a sizable chunk of tropical and subtropical portion of the continent made it possible for some of the best beaches in the world to be located here.

    You can find any type of beach here, from sizzling palm-fringed wonders to surfing paradises and secluded pebbly coves. If you only want the creme de la creme of beaches, here are top 5 most exciting beaches in South America.

  • The most beautiful rivers in the world

    Mekong River in Laos

    There has always been something about rivers that made them attractive to artists and travelers, and even people who just fancied a quiet walk along the meandering banks of a slowly flowing river.

    Rivers are usually only as beautiful as their surroundings, and a stretch of river that looks like a piece of paradise can quickly turn into a scene from an industrial wasteland. But  some rivers are regarded as universally, unequivocally beautiful, and it doesn’t take an artist to see that. So here are some of the most beautiful rivers in the world.

  • Gap Years – And Some Different Ways You Could Look at One

    For many students, whether finishing their GCSEs, A-Levels, or a university degree, a gap year is a rite of passage: it’s a chance to take a break from endless years of exams, endless speeches about future careers, and endless goal-orientated programmes.

    For these reasons and more, gap years programmes are an invaluable experience, and while they sometimes get a bad name, they teach people life lessons that the rat race doesn’t: they can deal with existential angst and the importance of people power, and they can show you just how easy another way of living could be…before you get right back into the daily grind.

    Plus, they can provide valuable experience for the daily grind, so that you may just end up with a better chance of securing a dream job after you’ve been on a gap year than before one.
