Some may say the trip of a life time! To retire from work for 2 years and travel the globe. Sounds very tough - NOT! Let us take you through our journey beginning with the Trans Mongoligan Railway from St. Petersburg to Bejing, China, South East Asia (Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Malaysia), Australia, New Zealand, Fiji and South America, including Antarctica and the Galapagos! When will it end you may ask? Well that's when the money runs out, so lets wait and see.

NAVIMAG - Chile

NAVIMAG is a cargo ship that has been converted to also take passengers from Puerto Natales to Puerto Montt, in the very south of Chile. It takes 4 nights and 3 days, and was better than a flight or the 36 hour bus that goes back into Argentina and way out of the way. There was not much excitement for the scenery and dolphins from us (unlike other passengers), considering where we had recently been, this was basically a mode of transport for us. The dorms were great. More like 4 cubicles together with curtains on each bunk. Very comfortable and somewhat private. There is only one 10 hour stretch of open sea, so this was the only time I took a couple of sea sickness tablets and made sure I was in bed trying to sleep through the worst of it.
