Leaving behind a career and beachside lifestyle in Sydney, English born accountant ANDY RILEY is lured back into the world of long bus journeys and hostels when girlfriend MARIA suggests leaving the nine-to-five grind and travelling up through South America to Colombia, her homeland. Life of Riley - South America is the engrossing tale of their 100-day journey -- initially through Chile, Argentina, Brazil, Bolivia and Peru - armed only with an out-of-date guidebook, Maria's fluent Spanish and Andy's exaggerated boxing experience. Then the highlight!Colombia. Exciting and exotic, dangerous and violent. A country of drug cartels, kidnappings, FARC guerrillas and Maria's parents. It's a story of discovery, love, companionship and cheap food. It's a story that will make you want to travel!
