Perito Moreno | Esquel | El bolson | Bariloche (Hitchhiking North)

Starting in Perito Moreno National Park I hitchhike north towards Bariloche with plans to stop in towns along the way including Perito Moreno, Esquel, and El Bolson. The ride I find early on is luckily going the same way so I don't have to switch cars often. The first evening they take me to a campsite they've stayed at before called Raúl Mini Camping. Raúl is absolutely hilarious and such a kind caring soul. He makes food for everyone, and is always giving away food because he does't want you to be hungry or in need. I have an absolutely wonderful time staying there and strongly suggest you choose that campsite if you are passing through Perito Moreno.
The following day I continue on with my original ride and they take me all the way to Esquel where I stay in a hostel to charge everything I need and to rest in a real bed after trekking, hitchhiking, and camping for over a week. I then decide to take a bus the final 2 hours towards El Bolson simply because I was tired and it was only $4. When I arrive in El Bolson I stay with Liz in the van for 2 days and we enjoy the sun and some downtime with wifi and delicious foods I wouldn't bring backpacking. I finally wrap up this video by hitchhiking to my hostel in Bariloche and hitchhiking to the start of my next trek.

Also, I apologize for the late release of this video. I ran into some tech issues and had a busy week with boat work that caused a delay in my work. I plan to be back on schedule with the upcoming video.
