Patagonia pt. 2 - desolation



I´m sitting on a ferry, about to leave the Chilean Tierra del Fuego en Route to Argentinian Patagonia. Just finished my breakfast/lunch hotdog meal. I am surrounded by miles of utter desolation. Since Darwin´s journey through Ushuaia in the 19th century, the region has been traversed by thousands. And yet the hospitable nature of this land maintains that feeling of complete solitude. The sublimity your surroundings tune out any other thoughts in your head, as one is left with that dumbstruck stare in his eyes.
