Me in Torres del Paine

I want to share with you this photo of my recent vacations. It was taken in Torres del Paine this summer by one of my friends in the picture. She programmed the camera in automatic mode, so we can all appear in the photo :)
I like this photo very much because it represents an ambitious project that we plan together in about one year.   That mean a lot of work. We had to earn enough money to buy the tickets to Punta Arenas, pay for the stay in the National Park and, of course, get all the mountain equipment.

The funny thing in all of this is that all started for looking a similar picture that appear in a travel magazine. We just love the landscape. So, we decided to do the W circuit in Torres del Paine in our next vacations. How ever, we didn't know how difficult it could be. It was supposed to take 3 days to finish the circuit but we did it in 5 exhausting days. The first one is definitely the most hard and difficult, and so was the way to get where we took the photo, in "Base las Torres". But once you get there, you immediately realise that it worth it. The view is simply amazing. I totally recommend it.
