What do I need? Below I put together of what I think I will need finally. Balloons and Gummi Bears are for the kids I will for sure meet 🙂

Just to be on the safe side I have today purchased a bus ticket from Santiago de Chile to Mendoza (Argentina). In order to show the airline (in my case Condor) at the check-in desk in Munich how I will get out of the country after immigration, because I bought a one-way-ticket to Chile. It is nothing Chile’s immigration desk wants to see but only the airline.

I hope this will be sufficient and will convince them.

Costs for the ticket: $ 41,53

Cancellation possible until: 72 hrs before departure

Costs for cancellation: 15% of ticket price = $ 6,23 ( < € 6,-)

Survive fire-starter

With this great fire-starter it’s possible to easily spark a stove, paper, wood… Even when it’s wet. The temperature is up to 3000 degrees C.

Thank you, Ines!

It was a test to see how I can maintain the blog by email.

20 days and counting. The motorbike is on its way, all preparations are done including health and bike insurances, and finally I have got a jacket with built-in heating! What a luxury 🙂

Now I’m ready. I got all necessary vaccinations:

• yellow fever
• hepatitis A+B
• canine madness
• tetanus
• diphteria
• poliomyelitis

My dentist confirmed that everything is fine to go up to 5.000 m.

And I got my diving fitness examination to go for a dive on the Galápagos Islands.

After 2 weeks intensive course where I have learned a lot I’m proud to have achieved this certificate. The school is really good and recommendable.

Tomorrow I will take the 7 a.m. bus to Madrid and will visit the Prado as well as Reina Sofía before I fly back home to Munich.
