Then buckle up as we tackle the border crossing between Peru and Chile, navigating our way through the bureaucratic maze.
As we hit the road again, we find ourselves on the legendary Pan-American Highway, the lifeline of the Americas, stretching endlessly before us. Our goal? To make it through the infamous Atacama Desert, a place where time seems to stand still.

Thanks for the shout out guys. Glad the next time we got to meet you, we were 'a little' less dirty 😂

@HourlessLife 3 месяца назад

Haha you guys are awesome! So glad we got to see you in Mendoza, thank you so much for all the Starlink counsel and for creating a "movie night" for Caspian. Cheers! ~ Eric

OK...LONG ... but we lived watching all of it. WOW - such a journey, Clark and I now look forward to every episode. And as artat777 say, "fun and fantastic!!!"

@HourlessLife 3 месяца назад

So glad you and Clark are enjoying the entire journey. It was LONG in more ways than one. It is all an adventure, and this is really what it is like which is what we want to share with our community. ~ Eric

those views are so stunning, they don't even look real

We keep telling ourselves that around every corner in this area. It looks like a postcard when you are driving through. Even though this video is a bit longer than normal for us, we only shared what amounts to a brief glimpse of the beauty of this area. Glad you enjoyed! ~ Eric

48:00 that was fun watching Caspian’s reaction to finding the Easter eggs

@HourlessLife 3 месяца назад

He is so much fun. But spoiler alert. This was the year he wrestled with the concept in his own mind and asked us about the identity of the Easter Bunny and simply put, we as his parents don't lie to him. But he took it well and that led to him asking about the Tooth Fairy, and then to Santa, and well, this was a small end of innocence. ~ Eric

@hailahafley-kluver2052 3 месяца назад

@@HourlessLife Well...as you have often said "this is real life" just on the road. It was the same way when my son also found out that the Easter Bunny was his parents - but we managed to keep some of the magic alive.

@HourlessLife 3 месяца назад

We learned so much on this trip to the man-made floating islands. Unreal how the Uros people make these island and have been doing it for 800 years. Would love to watch them go out and source the floating sediment. I'm sure they have a lot of traditions that have been passed down through generations, and it is really a special and important time for them. Unreal. ~ Eric

@simplycece 3 месяца назад

I loved Caspian’s Easter egg hunt! He was so excited. There is nothing like the magic of childhood. My kids also enjoyed their Easter eggs this year. That is crazy that your jeep got you through that checkpoint just by being a jeep. Also, that flat looking elevation gain and fuel economy situation in the desert is wild… All the food looks soooooo good! 🤤 Thank you for still sharing! I’m definitely not an overlander or even much of a traveler at all, but it is so fun to see your journey.

@HourlessLife 3 месяца назад

Hey Cece! Great to hear from you! We are still talking about the food in Chile even though we're in Argentina as of this writing. I don't think we've talked about food this much since Mexico! So glad you are enjoying the videos and the journey with us. I hope someday Caspian looks back on these videos and appreciates the wonder and innocence of his youth. ~ Eric

16:38 Fabulous view looks just like you would be in New Mexico or Arizona back home.

@HourlessLife 3 месяца назад

Except at 14,538 feet. 🤣 When you consider that Mount Rainier just outside Seattle sits at 14,410 feet, that kind of puts this into perspective. ~ Eric

@beyourbestwithbethany 2 месяца назад

We ran out of gas in north Chile. It's funny now. LOL! We were also shocked at how the cars would stop for pedestrians and drove like in USA.

@HourlessLife 2 месяца назад

So crazy Bethany how with as much infrastructure and similarities to the USA that Chile has, that their fuel stops in the northern part of the country are so few and far between, right?

@beyourbestwithbethany 2 месяца назад

OMG! Our 1st stop was that exact same mall and that exact same Wendy's in Chile. That is hilarious!!!

Awesome video as always Hourless life. Lake Titicaca was such a unique and interesting place and the food y’all found was so delicious looking. Eric hats off you for always thinking ten steps ahead about the safety for y’all’s journey. And Eric after y’all finish the Pan American and South America are y’all going to Africa or Australia first after leaving South America?

@HourlessLife 2 месяца назад

Hi Christopher! Yes, the food in Chile is amazing. We're actually back there now as I'm responding as we're getting ready to fly back to the States. Hopefully you saw my community post. Appreciate as always the kind words. So as of now, the plan after we've done what we're going to do in South America is to ship DAUNTLESS to South Africa and begin touring that continent next. But as always we'll stay flexible to what lies ahead, and be mindful of political situations in any region we're heading into. We have a long time left in South America if all goes well, so we'll see! ~ Eric

@debbiepicasso4013 3 месяца назад

Curious why you skipped Bolivia? Currently planning our route and was wondering if there was a specific reason.

@HourlessLife 3 месяца назад

There were multiple reasons Debbie. Many people go through Bolivia and from what I understand it is beautiful and challenging like most of the rest of Central America and the northern part of South America. For us, as Americans we have to pay for a visa to get into the country. Several hundred dollars for our family. In addition at the time we would have crossed we would have crossed towards La Paz which supposedly has traffic that either rivals Lima, Peru or is even, - gasp - worse than Lima. In addition there were multiple protests in the country where the locals were blocking the roads. It wasn't a dangerous situation for overlanders from what I understand, but essentially nobody could move through the country, and sometimes you might be sitting in a roadblock for over 20 hours. No fun. In addition, Bolivia is notorious for making it difficult for foreigners to get fuel for their vehicles. Not impossible mind you, just difficult. So with all of those things, added to the fact that we needed to fly out of Santiago, Chile at the end of this month to speak at Overland Expo West, the combination of factors made our decision pretty straightforward for us. It is a big big world, and we won't be able to see it all. Caspian was the most bummed because originally we were planning on going to the salt flats there and I told Caspian that if we did go there, I'd let him drive DAUNTLESS while sitting on my lap. But that will have to wait for another day. Hope you enjoyed this video and great question! ~ Eric

@@HourlessLife Thanks for such a thorough reply.. I didn't know about the Visa cost. I am still researching Ecuador and Peru. I did enjoy the video, i am getting lots of great information. Hope you have a safe trip to the states!
