At the far southern
tip of South America, surrounded by some of the world's roughest
seas, lies the island of Tierra del Fuego. It's three days into
the new Millennium, and Ian is about to set off on the journey
of a lifetime.
This is the fascinating story of Ian's experiences as a lone
backpacker on a not so lonely journey across South America.
There are tales of the opulent cultures Ian encounters as he
makes his way along the east coast from Buenos Aires to the
southernmost tip of South America and the inestimable experience
of actually being at the end of the world. Read

Ian was more than a little apprehensive when his turn
came to kiss the Blarney Stone. Not only had they just met,

and exotic countries. But he was soon to learn that you don't
always need to travel far, to experience something new and

Dusty pueblos adorned with
adobe houses, each with a man sitting against a wall, a large
sombrero tipped over his face, heavy snoring sounds emitting
from underneath that hat; barefoot Indian women and children
walking through the dusty, cobbled streets. These were
the first images that came to mind when Ian Middleton thought
of Mexico. But was it really like that? He had read James A
Michener's historical novel on Mexico, and it had portrayed
a country of rich cultural diversity. These are the things that
had ignited in Ian a burning desire to see this country for
himself.
