J'avais mis dans mon profil une photo qui est assez significative pour moi (d'une femme), et écrit dans ma signature qu'il ne s'agit pas de moi, afin de calmer les ardeurs ... et puis je n'arrête pas de recevoir des posts privés de drague.

MERCI D'ARRETER de m'écrire pour me draguer, ça fatigue.

La Realite de l Argentine

Petit resume pour bien comprendre la situation aujourd hui :

Le 30 novembre 2001, le gouvernement argentin bloque tous les comptes en banque en Argentine ( qu ils soient argentins, etrangers, prives ou commerciaux ) . Tout le monde comprend que les annees de la convertibilité 1USD = 1ARS se termine . Il faut se rendre a l evidence, le peso argenin va etre devalué, mais de combien ?

Une semaine plus tard, le gouvernement argentin accepte l idee de devaluation est propose un taux de change de 1 USD = 1, 40 ARS pour tous les proprietaires de compte en USD en Argentine. Mais voila que pendant cette meme semaine, deja dans la rue ( puisque les banques sont fermes ainsi que les casas de cambio) l'USD s echange deja a 1, 70 ARS ..........les argentins ( pour la pluparts) refusent et meme entament une procedure legale soit contre le gouvernement ( car anticonstitutionel de bloquer l argent des citoyens ou meme de vouloir echanger les USD de force contre des ARS ) soit directement contre les entites bancaires ( qui au passage, ne se genent pas pendant les nuits des 1ere et 2eme semaine de charger des fourgons entiers d'USD de leurs agences pour les faire passer en Uruguay ! ) ....nous entrons dans le " nous avons deposé des USD a la banque, nous voulons recuperer des USD et rien d autre " .

La justice analyse alors au cas par cas toutes les demandes des "ahoristas" (epargnants) ...pendant le mois de decembre 2001 puis de janvier 2002 ....l´ARS continue a se devaluer 1USD = 2 ARS, puis 3 ARS pour atteindre en juin 2002 1USD = 4 ARS ............alors que pendant ce temps la le gouvernement continue a indemniser les epargnants a hauteur de 1, 40 ARS ...pas etonnant que meme ceux qui accepteront de se faire indemniser a ce cours se retourneront peu de temps apres vers les tribunaux pour contester a leur tour leur indemnisation et se joindre a ceux qui refusent l indemnisation .

Pendant toutes les annees 2002, 2003 et 2004.....les tribunaux analysent la legalité d avoir bloqué les comptes, et d avoir changé de force les comptes USD en ARS .....jusqu a hier ou de la situation " il faut etudier chaque cas ", nous sommes passés a " nous avons decidé une fois pour toute et la reponse est : le gouvernement a bien fait, et tous les comptes seront indemnise a 1, 40 ARS pour 1 USD " ....je rappelle qu aujour dhui 1 USD = 3 ARS . ( vous imaginez la colere des petits epargnants ! ayant epargné pendant toute une vie pour pouvoir mettre de cote plusieurs milliers de dollar pour tenir pendant leur retraite, puisque ici la retraite de l Etat est proche de 0 ) ...... Ce qui explique la photo ci dessous prise hier apres midi au Tribunal de Buenos Aires !

Pendant que les riches et que la classe moyenne pleurent la perte de 15 ans d'economies des annees 80 et 90 ........la classe pauvre gueule contre le manque de travail, le manque de futur a l horizon, accroché a leur 150 ARS ( 40 EUR ) mensuel par famille d aide sociale lancée par la province de Buenos Aires, alors de temps en temps ca explose en banlieue sud, et la seule maniere de montrer leur colere c est de bloquer le puente Pueyrredon reliant la Province de Bsas a la ville de Bsas. Si ils bloquent ce pont, c est que de toute facon, ils n arrivent pas a penetrer dans Buenos Aires (capital federal), puisque tenue par la police federale PFA... coté province de Buenos Aires, la police provinciale est depassée et tres souvent corrompue, jettant de l huile sur le feu ( puisqu a la solde de Duhalde, gouverneur de la province de Buenos Aires et fervant opposant du president Kirschner ) . A la meme heure de l apres midi hier, les pauvres sur le pont Pueyrredon à la limite de capitale federale et du partido de Avellaneda (Prov de BsAS), ca bastonne dans la joie et la bonne humeur, et ca fait passer le temps quand par manque de travail de toute facon on n'a rien a faire pendant la journee. Ca c est un coup de la PFA sur les doigts d'une ahorrista a Tribunales ( deja qu elle a perdu tout son fric, si en plus elle perd un doigt ! ) Une vue du micro centre hier en fin d apres midi ....un peu de colere dans l air ! A Buenos Aires, on va toujours de surprise en surprise, et apres 10 ans de vie ici je continue a apprendre! Cet article n est peut etre pas tres touristique et on est loin de savoir si ca vaut le coup d aller a Ushuaia ou d aller jeter un coup d oeil aux baleines, mais si vous avez dans l idee de venir en Argentine, laissez ne serait qu une seule journee votre attirail de touriste et vos prejugés au placard pour franchement plonger dans la realite du pays ........vous apprendrez surement plus des autres ( et meme sur vous meme, car vous serez obliges de prendre parti ) dans une seule journee comme celle d hier, que de "faire" le Fitz Roy ou les chutes d'Iguazu pour rapporter de belles photos a montrer aux copains et a la famille. Les Eurodisney laissez les pour les autres . Herge !

Bonjour,

j'aimerais avoir quelques renseignements a propos des divers financements (publiques) que peuvent recevoir les ONG...

Merci d'avance.

Je suis à la recherche de qques précisiosn sur les conditions de voyage en train en Inde du Sud. J'ai vu qu'il existe des compartiments privés pour les couchettes. On va voyager avec notre fils de 3 ans et on souhaite donc un peu de confort pour que ce ne soit pas trop galère pour lui. Quelqu'un a-t-il déjà voyagé dans ces compartiements, est-ce que ça permet de passer une nuit correct? Faut-il s'y prendre en avance pour les réservations (on voyagera sur janvier/février)? avez-vous une estimation des prix; je n'arrive pas à me connecter sur le site d'Indianrail, je pense que j'ai un problème de navigateur.

Merci d'avance pour vos infos.

Hi there,

I’m heading to Guatemala for 18 days in August with my 11-year-old and I’m wondering if renting a car makes sense—not so much because of the road conditions, but because I’d like to spend about 3 days in Livingston. Since it’s only accessible by boat, I’d have to leave the car in Río Dulce. Maybe possible at a hotel, but that means paying for a rental for 3 days without using it... Same issue for Semuc Champey—it’s only reachable by 4x4, and I won’t be renting that type of vehicle.

Also, has anyone traveled from Panajachel (Lake Atitlán) to Cobán (to explore the caves and waterfalls in the area)? According to Google Maps, it’s a 6-hour, 44-minute drive... so whether by car or minibus, it’s *really* long (same for Cobán-Flores later). Are there any interesting stops along the way where I could spend a night? And if I’m not renting a car, is it possible to take two private shuttles for this route?

Thanks for your tips!

Autumn 2025 marks my 11th trip to Japan. I’ve neglected the south for too long, so like last year, it’s my main destination again.

We’ll revisit some familiar spots, but of course, we’ll also try plenty of new things. This trip feels a bit strange—no more of that initial magic, but on the other hand, we’ve really explored some off-the-beaten-path and private locations. The variety of regions, landscapes, and vehicles I’ve photographed is pretty remarkable. In search of vintage trains and threatened lines, I think my future trips will follow the same vibe.

After the 2017 and 2024 travel journals, it’s time to dive into Japan’s lesser-known side—all by public transport, of course. Day 1, arrival in Tokyo

The timing won’t be like other years since we arrive at Narita in the mid-afternoon after a layover in Hong Kong.

The only real mission for this afternoon is picking up tickets for the next day. And already, the first travel stress: I’ll have to rewrite the entire day because the Revaty Kinu 109 to Kinugawaonsen is fully booked, just like all the morning trains. So instead of a relaxed start exploring Ueno, I’m back to scrutinizing schedules. I manage to snag something last-minute after struggling for hours. Then, I wait for a message from Seiichi to meet up for dinner. Meeting friends on the first day and staying up late with jet lag—like I said, this trip isn’t like the others.

A great evening at a place I love.

Hi there, I visited the Faroe Islands in late March 2026 for about ten days. I was invited by a friend who lives near Tórshavn, so I don’t have any info on tourist accommodations or car rentals. Still, I’d like to share a few thoughts about my trip: - Before leaving, I consulted travel guides and blogs. I was surprised by how repetitive and unoriginal the featured sites were. This leads hurried travelers to follow the same overcrowded routes, which can annoy locals. I found that all Faroese villages were interesting—they reflect the country’s identity, even without the iconic grass-roofed houses. Those are indeed harmonious and beautiful, but they feel like an exotic cliché. For activities, I loved the lively ports that keep the country running. - I was annoyed by the paid trails in tourist spots. Locals explained that these paths cross private land, and owners are responsible for maintenance and safety. There are plenty of free trails, too—signs at the start detail their features. While not alarmist, the extreme and unpredictable weather is a key factor to consider before setting out. - The wind’s strength really impressed me. The architecture, with doors and windows opening outward to prevent gusts from blowing roofs off, speaks to the harsh climate. Some days, relentless rain and squalls made going outside unappealing. I realized that in this country, it’s best to plan for flexible indoor days. - Distances are relatively short. I was happy to be based near Tórshavn because it was easy to explore one or more places in a day. The roads are in great condition. In late March, diesel was 2 €. Tunnel tolls can add up (~26 € per crossing), making a fixed base less practical than I’d thought. - Everyone agrees: the landscapes are breathtaking. Nature feels untamed here—except for the short grass, thanks to all the woolly sheep. - The flight from Paris to the Faroe Islands (and back) was long in March—11 hours with three legs: Paris-Amsterdam, Amsterdam-Copenhagen, Copenhagen-Vágar. In bad weather, Vágar Airport can close, causing delays. During tourist season, Atlantic Airways offers a direct Paris-Faroe Islands flight, which is more comfortable and cheaper. - I found a book recommendation in a guide that fascinated me after my trip: *Les collectionneurs d'images* by Joanes Nielsen. Through its sometimes caricatured characters, it offers a glimpse into Faroese mentalities from the 1950s to 1970s—attitudes that likely persist today. In conclusion, I’ve traveled a lot and I’m tired of destinations that all start to look the same. The Faroe Islands were a delight—a country stunning in its landscape, climate, and culture, where tourism has barely altered its authenticity.

I just installed the Maps.Me app on my phone. I only recently found out about this app. I’m traveling in 2 weeks and a few days, and I’m a bit stuck on how to use it. I’m from the Montreal (Quebec) area, and I’d love to know if there’s a kind soul out there who could help me get started and use the app at least minimally. If there are private lessons available, I’d be interested in those too.

Thanks in advance for your help. Simon

Some trips are born twice.

Ours was supposed to happen in 2020. Everything was ready: the itinerary, the flight tickets, hotel reservations and Machu Picchu, the rental car, dreams of high altitudes and wide-open spaces. And then the world stopped.

Like so many other plans, our trip to Peru was put on hold. Disappointment was followed by a more concrete reality: paperwork, endless back-and-forth, and battles to recover some of the costs we’d already paid.

The years went by. Life moved on, with its shifting priorities and unexpected twists. Rescheduling this trip wasn’t possible until 2025.

The itinerary stayed mostly true to what we’d imagined five years earlier. One major difference, though—in 2020, we’d planned to rent a car and explore the roads completely independently. Most importantly, we hadn’t included the three-day Ausangate trek, due to lack of time.

For 2025, our plans evolved. 4x4 rental prices had skyrocketed, and when we looked at our schedule more closely, we realized quite a few days didn’t actually need a vehicle. So we made a different choice and opted for private drivers instead. A decision we never regretted. Always punctual, thoughtful, and available... they were so much more than just drivers.

All our reservations were made in January, except for the trek, which we booked in February.

Finding reliable drivers on our own was tough, so we asked Laurent from Tout Pérou to handle it for us. Going through Tout Pérou also gave us a discount on the train ride to Aguas Calientes, so Laurent booked those tickets too. He also bought our Machu Picchu entrance tickets at the same price we would’ve paid on the official website. When comparing domestic flight prices, we found it was cheaper to book from Peru, so Laurent took care of those as well.

This time, nothing was going to stop us. Peru was waiting. And we were ready. 🙂

IMPORTANT NOTICE for those planning to take a bus to another city, state, or destination from Salvador!

Starting January 20, 2026, the intercity bus station Rodoviária is changing its address! The Rodoviária is leaving the Iguatemi area and will now be located in ÁGUAS CLARAS (about twenty kilometers from downtown Salvador).

A brand-new station (the most modern in Brazil) has just been set up there, accessible by car/taxi/Uber/metro. Allow for much more transfer time (especially during rush hours), so leave early if you're heading to Chapada Diamantina or other Brazilian cities by bus.

Remember, there are also private transfers (even French-speaking ones) that can take you directly from your hotel in Salvador to your hotel in Chapada. Sure, it’ll be more expensive, but you’ll save on transfer time and comfort.

Tropical greetings from Salvador,

Hi there!

I’m visiting Tokyo and the Five Lakes region, as well as Kyushu, in February-March. I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed when it comes to choosing onsen and ryokan.

-I’d love to find a nice onsen and possibly a great ryokan in the Five Lakes region to relax a bit after visiting Tokyo.

-I’m also looking for some lovely onsen/rotenburo in Kyushu, as well as a nice ryokan to wrap up our little trip.

Unfortunately, I’m completely lost among all the options. Do you have any recommendations for me?

For Kyushu, I’d love to find an onsen where the outdoor baths are really surrounded by nature. And if possible, a mixed-gender bath so I can enjoy it with my partner (or a private bath, but I get the impression private baths are never outdoors?). As for the ryokan budget, 450 € per night is unfortunately the absolute max...

Thanks in advance! :)

Hi

Which taxi app do you recommend for Senegal? Are there shared taxis from Dakar Airport to La Somone? If not, do you have an idea of the price for a taxi?

Thanks in advance

Hi everyone,

I’ve just returned from 15 days in Cuba and wanted to share my experience along with some practical tips for those planning a trip there.

1. Formalities:

- Passport valid for at least 6 months after your return. - E-visa: apply online (payment by bank transfer only via the embassy of your choice): evisacuba.cu or through an agency novelacuba.com (card payment on their site—I had to go with this option and recommend it because the Cuban embassy in Brussels apparently never received my transfer...) - Digital D’Viajeros form to fill out a few days before departure - Mandatory health insurance

2. Currency/budget - Plan your entire budget in cash; card payments are rare, and withdrawals at the official rate aren’t great. Local currency: CUP (Cuban Peso)

Official rate: ~1 € = 120 CUP → state-run restaurants and shops.

Current unofficial rate: ~1 € = 490 CUP → private restaurants, local bars, Cuban-owned shops.

For exchanging money: The easiest way: ask at your *casa particular* or a local restaurant.

3. My itinerary (15 days)

Havana: 3 nights Viñales: 3 nights Cienfuegos: 1 night Trinidad: 3 nights Varadero: 3 nights Havana: 1 night

Flights: Air Europa from Brussels, with a layover in Madrid. Smooth and pleasant service. Accommodations: *casas particulares* booked on Airbnb except for Varadero (Iberostar Playa Alameda hotel).

Practical tips

Install a VPN before departure (many blocked sites like Instagram and Airbnb).

Download the El Toque app to check the updated CUP exchange rate.

Internet via ETECSA SIM card (~30 € for 10 GB) or Wi-Fi in hotels/*casas*.

Download Maps.me for offline maps.

Intercity travel: shared taxi, Viazul bus, or private transfer through your *casa*.

Electricity: 110 V, sometimes 220 V.

Bring basic supplies and medications—hard to find there.

Cuba requires flexibility and openness: regular power outages, unstable internet (especially in Trinidad).

Finally, my personal take:

I loved my trip to Cuba! It’s a disorienting yet deeply charming country. Poverty is visible, especially in Havana: crumbling buildings, many people asking for help (but no safety concerns!). Bringing some essentials for locals is a good idea (soap, toothpaste, medications, clothes...). Cubans are incredibly welcoming and friendly. A few basics in Spanish help a lot! The vibe is unique: music in every street, musicians everywhere, salsa all around. The variety of landscapes is amazing: colonial architecture, paradise beaches, mountains, waterfalls, lush valleys—you’ll never get bored. Only downside: Varadero, less authentic than the rest of the country, but I expected that! Overall, it was a wonderful trip, and I’d love to go back!

Don’t hesitate if you have any questions! 😉

Hi there, it's me again with more questions about Kerala!

I'm thinking of making the trip from Mysore to Cochin by private car (with a driver, of course) in one day. I'd love to get an idea of the price and travel time (and if you know a reliable agency).

Alternatively, maybe it's more interesting to do this trip by bus? I'm worried it might take much longer than with a private car. This will be my first trip to South India, and I'm not really sure about travel times or how easy it is to get around by local buses or trains. Thanks!

Hi everyone. We’re taking a 15-day RV trip, Montreal to Quebec City loop. Late September to early October 2025. I was wondering if it’s easy to find spots for the RV at that time, and if we absolutely have to book RV campground sites in advance? Also, if you’ve got any great places to park and stay, we’d love your recommendations… thanks so much!

I found out that in Namibia, at a camp in the Hoanib River bed... a luxurious camp with no fences but all the comfort, including "facilities" inside... If my information is correct. An experienced "tourist" was killed by a lion at night. This person had left their tent in the middle of the night to answer a call of nature (even though all the amenities were inside the tent; "tent" is actually an understatement for this kind of "accommodation"). The other "campers" and staff intervened, but it was too late. In this region, there are desert lions. In such a hostile environment, these lions tend to look for the "easy option," so they attack livestock and get closer to humans (opportunity)... There’s an entire program to protect lions, local populations, and their livestock, including fitting lions with tracking collars. Why am I writing all this? In Southern Africa (AFS), in many places, you can find yourself in areas with no fences or protections, whether in private or public camps. There are safety rules that are clearly laid out. Only get out of your vehicle in designated areas, and always keep in mind that... wild animals could still be nearby. Even at a picnic stop in Kruger National Park (KNP)... Don’t leave your tent or the immediate area at night... and even during the day, stay alert. That’s also why children under 8, 10, or even 16 are often not allowed. Even if it seems safe... you never know! Absolute and strict adherence to these rules is essential! ESSENTIAL! Personally, I’ve seen lions very close to the "lounge" of a lodge in Addo... with people having breakfast outside, completely unfazed. I remember that lodge in Maputaland where a tourist who didn’t follow the rules was killed by a lion... (in this case, the lion was identified and killed because it might have returned and also shown its buddies how easy hunting there was). Another case where a mom decided her child was old enough to sleep alone in their chalet... and the child wandered out at night... Or those lodges where you’re escorted even for 20 meters by an armed ranger... and not just armed with a slingshot. Lodges where... YOU DON’T GO OUT AT NIGHT... if you have a problem, you have a whistle, a foghorn, and you wait... That lodge where lions approached the camp and all the staff were on high alert... Those places where you could hear the lions’ long and short calls... and the hyenas’ laughter... I could go on... And this applies to other animals too... Anyway, This little note is probably too schoolmarmish or preachy, but it’s just to remind you that safety rules are there to protect you. Never take them lightly. Never be overconfident. Ndlelanhle! !

Hello everyone!

We're off! After exploring the north, the four friends have now discovered the south. We’re excited to share this new travel journal, dedicated to our little group and our strong friendship, written by Richard and illustrated with Kate’s photos. I’ll chime in from time to time with practical tips.

First of all, a big thank you to everyone on VoyageForum who helped us plan this trip. It would’ve been quite different if we’d just relied on guidebooks.

The itinerary lasted just over 3 weeks: Mahabalipuram, Pondicherry, Thanjavur, the Chettinad region, Madurai, Munnar, Munroe Island, Cochin, and Chennai. We traveled by train, taxi, and private car with a driver, took a domestic flight, and stayed in guesthouses, Airbnb apartments, and hotels. For each of us, including flights, the total budget barely reached 2000 €, and we didn’t hold back—knowing we avoid resorts and love street food and small Indian restaurants.

Hi there, We’ll be in India in March and we’re taking the boat-bus between Alleppey and Kottayam. After that, we’d like to head to Kumily. I’ve found totally different info and can’t seem to find a daytime bus. Do you have any websites or tips to share?

Thanks so much! :)

Hello, Is it possible to consider wild camping with young children, mainly in the Anti-Atlas? It’s not an option for budget reasons but rather a way of traveling we enjoy.

If we get the landowner’s permission and offer compensation, is it feasible?

Happy New Year to you all

Hi! I’m a fit, sporty, dynamic, and enthusiastic woman looking for someone to join me in exploring Georgia, Albania, or Armenia (not all at once 😄). Traveling simply and positively is my style. I’m used to traveling with "strangers," and it’s always gone well, but this time, I don’t have partners for these destinations. Preferably leaving in April, May, or July–September. Thanks!

Hi there, We’re heading to Gujarat at the end of January for a month, traveling by local transport, and I’m currently trying to figure out how to get from PATAN to BHUJ by train or bus. On the IRTC website, I only found overnight trains, which doesn’t work for us. Do you know if there are any daytime buses leaving from Patan or Palanpur? We’re also wondering if there’s a ferry service between Mandvi and Okha. Thanks for your help! Alod

Hi there, we found a local Tunisian agency for our 4x4 tours in southern Tunisia. This local agency in Djerba has great reviews online, and we’d like to confirm that it’s a top choice. So if anyone has already traveled with GSA-VOYAGES, we’d love to hear about your experiences. Thanks. Théodormonod
