Crossing the Andes

Stef Biemans travels the ridge of the Andes and wonders how South Americans are doing in Potosí, the highest city in the world.

In the Chilean capital of Santiago, Stef visits South America’s highest skyscraper.

Stef travels to Argentina’s southernmost tip Ushuaia, and discovers an impressive electronics industry among the penguins.

In Ecuador, Stef Biemans visits the valley of eternal life – where the high life expectancy of its inhabitants has astonished observers – and investigates its finite nature.

In this episode we look at the role of the mother-in-law, because Latino’s tend to talk about them rather a lot.

In the final episode of the series, we journey down the Magdalena River, which originates in the Andes and ends in the Caribbean Sea.
