Edy & Brigitte - on worldtrip since 2005
In 2005 we changed our lifestyle and became full-time travelers ever since.
In mobile homes we rolled through North Africa, South America, Russia, Mongolia, China,
Southeast Asia, New Zealand, Australia, Southern Africa as well as North- and Central America.
Right now we are again on the move in South America.
The future: We remain nomadic and let every day take us by surprise.
We hope that all of you have fun in virtually traveling with us.
Edy and Brigitte

Chile: Curanipe, Arcos de Calan & Iglesia de Piedra

Paso Pehuenche - Argentina to Chile
The drive over the Paso Pehuenche was interesting and varied. Tarred roads with many crash barriers, which were damaged or torn away by falling rocks or debris. Gauchos on horseback herding herds with their dogs, lonely farmsteads, magnificent Andean landscape with crystal clear, deep blue lakes. We were thrilled.
Argentina: Zonda Almacen & Uco Valley
December 2024
See and be seen
In Gualeguaychú, we re-entered Argentina from Uruguay.
We noticed that, especially in the late afternoon and late into the evening, local families spend hours driving around the Rambla (promenade) in their often old or very old cars.
Uruguay: Montevideo, MACA and Mini Starlink

On the road in Uruguay
Long, straight highways through huge fruit fields, lots of oncoming trucks. We found it especially when the navigation system indicated the next intersection in 100 kilometers.
Uruguay is known for political and economic stability. In addition to agriculture, the country focuses on IT- and Software- services.
Argentina: Capybaras, Ostrich & Fun
October 2024
Capybaras
are friendly and relaxed giant guinea pigs. They can weigh up to 50 kg and have a body length of approx. 1.4 meters. One of the remarkable things about Capybaras is their social behavior. They live in large groups of up to 20 individuals with a dominant male and several females and their pups.
The capybaras are excellently adapted to the wet element:
Brazil: same same but different, gas alarm, police contact

Goiás Velho and Pirenópolis, BR
A journey into the past. These small towns with cobblestone streets are well preserved and keep the atmosphere of the 19th century with their colonial houses.
A peaceful atmosphere prevails in Goiás Velho. Which is more than can be said for Pirenopolis. As the most important recreational area in the city of Brasilia, there is a real hustle and bustle with its many restaurants and bars. Tables are set out on the Rua do Lazer (the street of leisure) and the very active nightlife is visited by many people.
Brazil: purpose built town Brasilia
August 2024
Brasilia - a positive experience
The purpose-built city of Brasilia offers many sights with amazing space and light effects - definitely worth a visit!
The speed limit in Brasilia is 60 km/h, which is enforced by many speed cameras and speed bumps. This enormously calms Brazil's otherwise hectic traffic. It is impossible to explore this city on foot, as it was built on the condition that everyone owns a car. Many streets have no crosswalks and no pedestrian crosswalks. We were parked with around 20 other motorhomes for over 2 weeks at Lake Paranoa in a public square in Brasilia. From there, we visited the sights of Brasilia by Uber.
