" On foot through the Seven Lakes"

In 2001 I went to the route of the Seven Lakes!
At that time I was a university student and I had a friend. She was called Mariana.
We wanted to live an adventure... travel the 200 km as backpackers!
We started in San Martin de los Andes and finished in Bariloche. That was cool!!!
Many things happened to us on the way, we pitched and we disassemble the tent many times!
we met fantastic people, we cooked in different places with a carafe of my dad. At night we played the guitar and we song a capella.
we always stopped cars in the morning, because it was safer.
In Villa la Angostura, we went to Soledad's recital. It was free!
A journey be measure
by the amount friends!
not by the amount of
Kilometers...
Anecdote: When we arrived to Bariloche, we stayed in a small camp. There an employee frightened us with a gun. After that we learned the man was an ex-soldier.
So we went to the hostel and there started other adventure. Among the residents there were Chinese, Germans, Portuguese, so it was very difficult to communicate.
Then we all went to the dance club, upon arrival, we come across "the pretenders"
Concluding, we passed a few very happy days! We learned a lot.
I always wanted to make a trip like that, so I thank God for having allowed it!
It is a unique experience, the uncertainty of each day generates a lot of adrenaline, sometimes in the middle of my routine, I miss those crazy days.
