Roadtripping Solo from California to Argentina Is Not What You’d Expect…

from Kindred Roads Podcast · host Mary Goggin

Fletcher Cox spent seven months driving the Pan-American Highway from Lake Tahoe to Ushuaia, Argentina with nothing but his husky mix, Dune, and his Audi sedan… In this episode, Fletcher tells the story of crossing a cartoonish bridge in Peru under the watch of a “toll troll,” galloping through a Mexican ghost town with a gold-toothed cowboy, and stumbling into a mysterious masked procession in a tiny mountain village. We also get into what it felt like to summit Patagonia’s granite spires, how he built a shrine to his late friend at the literal end of the world, and why travel warped his perception of time and reality forever.
