We had very high expectations for Patagonia, probably too high, and thus we felt a little let down. May have been a better trip not on a budget where we could get out on our own a little bit more, however getting off the path is really expensive down there! We update our <a href="http://ishouldlogoff.com/finances/spending/" rel="nofollow">spending page</a> after every country, that's the best way to keep track of our budget. Yes, so far we're spending below budget overall, but honestly we thought we might actually be spending less. I guess we could give up diving, mountain biking and kayaking, but in the end would it be worth it? Congrats on the new travel writer for <a href="http://www.backpackerdaily.com/" rel="nofollow">your site</a>! @ Lindsey- Its not that Patagonia wasn’t worth the money.

I loved reading this article. This is really helpful since I hope to backpack in South America as well. I am SO shocked to hear that you would skip Patagonia if you had to do it all over again! I know it was expensive, but wasn't it worth the money? And moreso, do you find that your buget is on track? I hope you have a fantastic time in Africa! I'll be reading up! Lindsey Hey guys!
