We’re all guilty of worrying too much about the little things, complaining about whatever it is, and not switching up our perspective. Today was a bad day – so I went through the archives of my life and switched up my mood entirely. After looking back on the last (almost) decade, I truly feel like the luckiest girl on earth! My favorite continent is South America (duh), so I wanted to put together some of my favorite memories in hopes that they’ll inspire you to go south. From waterfalls to desert to mountains to beaches to vineyards to salt flats to sand dunes to glaciers and volcanoes, there’s *no* shortage of special gems to discover!
28 Photos That Will Make You Want to Visit South America
Every once in a while, it’s important to pull your head out of your ass, lift your gaze and appreciate the bigger picture.

Bolivian salt flats are my favorite! Probably the most unique landscape I’ve ever had the pleasure of knowing!

This one caught my eye! My mom is from Quito Ecuador and our last trip to Ecuador included a trip to Baños! I’ll never forget the sugar cane on the streets and the melcocha being made. The year we were there the Tungurahua erupted (December 2010). I’d love to go to the Galapagos though! That’s where my mom and dad honeymooned.
Thank you for sharing your travels.
