I arrived in San Pedro de Atacama, Chile with a sense of coming home. It was warm, there were cacti, and it smelled like the desert. Essentially it felt like home.
After stashing my bags and taking my first shower in three days, I set off to see what activities could be had in the area. The consensus seemed to me more lakes, more geysers, and sandboarding. While the lakes in South America are beautiful, I’ve had my fill of staring at bodies of water that inevitably all end up looking the same.
The geysers involved getting up around three in the morning.
Sandboarding it was.
