As
all of you know, I'm kind of a weird cactus grower/fan, so I'll tell you about
my lastest trip, to the Atacama desert during this year's summer.
It all began when I left my house in Curacaví to join my friend, and driver in our adventure, at his house in Olmué, fifth Region. That day we prepared everything to start early the next morning, we had a long way coming. We started the day early, at 7, and then we went out heading north to El Cobre, Antofagasta (2nd) Region. The idea was to go there and start coming back south, stopping in locations to find, photograph and try to discover seeds of Chilean native cacti. For that purpose we had the knowledge of my friend, who's been travelling to the dessert for at least 5 years now, and the help of this book, which contains pictures and descriptions of several species :)
We were true adventurers, walking for hours to find plants, climbing hills and small mountains ranges. On a normal day, we would wake up at 9 approx. And then have breakfast to start the day exploring the camping site we had chosen the night before. After that we would find a new site, and track the land to find more species. It would all finish when the sun was coming down, as we needed to find a good camping spot, and use sunlight to set the tents.
It may sound boring for some, but this was one of the best experiences I've had, I learned and enjoyed every moment of it :) Here you have some pictures of the trip!

I like the Atacama desert, for many years that I don'T go to this place, and I miss the rocks and sand :C (but not the sun )

ResponderEliminarIs a great trip, but I find the boring north of Chile a little boring, it is better the landscape that is given to the south
I imagine the desert like cartoons when the people start to see things that aren't in the place ajajaj
ResponderEliminarI thought it was a great trip!, I like adventures. I hope I can go there someday.
ResponderEliminarDoes not sound boring at all, is a place beautiful, besides in the night you can see the stars which makes it a perfect place. :D
ResponderEliminarThat's pretty amazing, we do the same things with my sister, but instead to seeing cactus, we go to the mountains to see stones in search of minerals and fossils of shells. She studies engineering in metallurgy, so she is very obsessed with that.
ResponderEliminarAmazing trip! I was very close to visiting the desert but I couldn't went because i didn't have enough time. It will be the next time.
ResponderEliminarThe atacama desert is a great place, I hope to visit it in the future
ResponderEliminarWooah, I think your travel to the desert was incredible! It must be a beautiful place with a lot of flora and fauna
ResponderEliminarwhat you gonna do with the rains in the desert? :O the cactus will survive? nice history!
ResponderEliminarunfortunately, there's nothing to do with it.
Eliminarsome plants take advantage of this, and some others die.. specially if due to the rain there are rockslides or mudslides.
This trip sounds amazing, the desert is very nice for visit
ResponderEliminarI visited many places in the north all are incredible
This sound like an interesting trip! I think you really enjoyed! But I prefer south insted north :)
ResponderEliminarThis is a really good topic! Traveling is the best thing of the whole world.
ResponderEliminarThe north is awesome and so enormous, I feel like an ant when I go to the north.
