The Desert For Dessert
It truly pained me to leave Patagonia. As I'm sure you, my noble reader, are aware, certain places can strike a chord so to speak. Patagonia is definitely such a place for me and high upon the list of places I want to go back to. The fact that my last three days there were …
A Return To Patagonia
