We were standing on the Malecón just four days ago. 🇲🇽🇨🇦

Now, back in the quiet of Canada, the headlines about Puerto Vallarta feel a world away, yet impossibly close. It’s strange how a place can get under your skin so quickly—how you can still feel the Pacific salt on your face while watching the news from across the border.

PV is a place of light, even when the shadows get long. Watching this footage of a lone surfer cutting through the black water at midnight, I’m reminded of the people we met—the resilience, the grit, and the soul that doesn't just "go away" when things get heavy.

Thinking of our friends and the locals who make that city breathe. We left a piece of ourselves back there on the sand. 🤍

📍 From PV to the Great White North.

They call this the Puna. 🇦🇷

A high-altitude fever dream at 4,000 meters where the landscapes feel like another planet.
From the obsidian shadows of Volcán Carachi Pampa to the volcanic white waves of Campo de Piedra Pómez, Catamarca is the raw, beating heart of the Argentine North.

We lost our breath at the Dunas de El Peñón and found it again in the pink reflections of the Laguna.

This isn't just travel. This is an unlearning.

📍 Antofagasta de la Sierra, Catamarca. 🇦🇷 Freedom lives here.

El Peñón is your high-desert home base in Catamarca—quiet, remote, and right on the doorstep of the best adventure day ever. Volcano terrain, flamingos at Carachi Pampa, and the unreal white pumice desert.

Stay at Hostería de Altura El Peñón is the perfect base in Catamarca to explore the high desert without long transfers. From here you can do an epic full-day loop: Volcán Carachi Pampa → Laguna Carachi Pampa (flamingos) → Campo de Piedra Pómez → Dunas de Tatón.

The day started slow in Tolar Grande: a low tire, a quick local patch, and us wandering town while we waited for the truck.

So we explored what was right in front of us — the old train tracks, the abandoned buildings, that high-puna stillness you only notice when you’re forced to pause.

From above, you can see why people talk about this place: the Ojos de Mar — those small saltwater lagoons known for their intense colors and fragile microorganisms/stromatolite life.

But we’d also heard the site changed dramatically, with reports of the pools turning into a murkier “brown lagoon.” This is more of what we saw from above.

We didn’t try to enter the park — we just watched it from the sky, and it honestly felt like the right distance. If you’re coming, ask in town first about current access and what’s allowed.

Out here, the land does the talking — red earth, wind lines, and distance stretched across the high puna.

Desierto del Diablo isn’t the kind of place you rush. It rewards the slow shots: a gentle drift, a wide reveal that lets the textures stay on screen long enough to feel real. From the drone, the ground reads like brushstrokes — rust tones shifting with the light, ridges and cuts that look drawn in, and a horizon that keeps pulling away the closer you get.

It’s simple, stark, and weirdly calming in the way big landscapes can be. No spectacle needed — just space, color, and time.

Cuesta de Lipán

National Route 52 (Ruta Nacional 52) in Jujuy doesn’t lead into the Andes — it climbs into them.

This is Cuesta de Lipán: a ribbon of asphalt unspooling out of Purmamarca, stacking switchback on switchback until the world turns thin and quiet at Abra de Potrerillos (4,170 m).

From up here, the road looks unreal — like someone drew it with a steady hand across raw mountain folds. And then it keeps going: past the Salinas Grandes, onward toward the Paso de Jama on the way to Chile.

If you ever drive it: take it slow, breathe deeper than you think you need to, and let the switchbacks do what they do best—turn distance into story.

Would you drive RN5? ☁️🚁

This is one of the largest salt flats in South America, sitting at over 3,400 meters above sea level in the Puna region of northwest Argentina. After rainfall, a thin layer of water forms on the surface, creating natural reflections that turn the flats into a mirror.

Today conditions lined up perfectly, so I took the drone up and captured a few slow, steady passes to show the scale and patterns of the area.

Salinas Grandes is often passed through on the way to other destinations, but when the light and weather cooperate, it’s worth stopping and taking the time to really see it.
