It took almost 48 hours of traveling before I arrived at my destination of Pucon, Chile. I started off with a flight from London to Sao Paulo. Then after a gruelling 15-hour wait in the airport, I flew on to Santiago. The short four-hour flight arrived at 2am. Although this meant I would have to wait around three hours in the airport before I could make my way to the bus terminal, I was buoyed up by the fact that my boat and bag had made it to Santiago without any hassle. Next up I made the first bus to Pucon, which added another 11 hours of traveling time to my journey. Once I arrived in Pucon my destination was Pucon Kayak Hostel. After asking for directions and eventually deciding that I had been lead to the wrong place I found a place to stop for an internet connection and figured out how to complete the last part of the journey.
