Everything on this page comes from our own travel records: the notebooks, receipts and route notes we keep while moving through Argentina and across the Andes with a small dog and two kids. We are not an official source, and we do not present ourselves as one.
When a post mentions a vet bill in Mendoza or a bus company that took a small dog in the cabin, that detail comes from a booking we made or a counter we stood at. We do not compile statistics, cite official studies or republish rankings from other outlets.
Rules shift between provinces, seasons and even individual offices. A pet policy that worked for us on one route may be handled differently six months later. Treat our notes as a starting point for your own questions, not as a guarantee of what you will find.
We do not accept payment for mentioning a lodging, a clinic or a coworking space. If we write about a place, it is because we stayed, worked or waited there ourselves. Nothing on the blog is a paid placement or an affiliate ranking.
These references are informal. They have not been checked by a lawyer, a veterinarian or a tourism authority, and we do not claim they are verified. For anything that affects your documents or your animal's health, confirm the current requirement with the relevant office before you travel.
Two to three new posts a month add to this shelf, usually written within days of the trip they describe, while the details are still fresh. Older entries stay online as they were published, even when a price or a policy has since changed, so you can see what we knew at the time.
Everything on this page comes out of our own travel records. We are a family from Buenos Aires who has been moving through South America with a small dog since 2019, and the reference shelf behind each post is made of the same ordinary things: a receipt from a clinic, a rental contract, a bus ticket stub, a week of weather we did not expect.
A vet visit in Mendoza, a temporary apartment search in Bariloche, a bus company that finally said yes to a dog in the cabin. The details come from the day it happened, which is why some posts read more like a logbook than a guide.
We do not publish third-party research, official statistics or paid placements. If a figure appears in a post, it is a figure we paid or measured ourselves, and we say so plainly instead of dressing it up as a study.
Two to three new posts a month add to the same collection: packing lists, city walking routes, seasonal weather notes for Patagonia and the Andes, and notes on working from cafes and coworking spaces in smaller Argentine cities.
The material behind the blog is narrow on purpose. Overland routes across South America, pet-friendly lodging, border paperwork for traveling with animals, long-stay apartment rentals, and the practical side of slow travel with kids. We keep the checklists, the route notes and the seasonal observations. We leave out anything we cannot point to a source for, even when it would make a post look more authoritative.
If you are planning a slow trip with a pet or a family, the Patagonia route notes and the border-crossing checklist are the two pieces readers ask about most. Both are built from trips we actually took, and both get revised when something on the ground changes.
Curious how a post moves from a note in a notebook to something published? The writing process walks through it, and the support desk is where reader questions land.
