Welcome!
Twomey Travel (2me Travel) represents the synthesis of years of travel, writing and sharing experiences. Although a published author, Patrick began writing his first real blog in 2014 while working in Peru.
As an international tour guide / operator and lecturer, Patrick is part of a much larger community of ethical travellers.
Throughout these many pages are fun discussions of trips, destinations and, from time to time, ethical issues.
Much of this 2me Travel site focuses on the Americas in general, but in no way limits itself. This is first and foremost a site dedicated to the love of travel! It is governed by the support of group travel and strongly influenced by ethical awareness. Please enjoy, share, participate and join our journeys!

Covid & Information – By Finn
Today the world is faced with a pandemic. COVID-19, caused by the novel Coronavirus is now present in the majority of countries and has infected at least 1 million people (and conceivably many more). In an age of a 24-hour news cycle and widespread social media, it can be difficult to separate fact from fiction […]

Canada Day 2020… eh?*
July 1 – Canada’s birthday. Appropriately, there are no parades this year. We are hiding covidly. Not just in the country, but regionally, for Canada is not so much a nation, but a community of jurisdictions united by an amorphous set of ideals, history and legal frameworks. * Let’s clarify ‘eh’. Endemic to the English […]

Freedom… whatever that means
Shall we talk about slavery? I honestly did not know the term Juneteenth, but over the years I have begun to understand a little about the history of enslavement. However horrific you may think slavery was, it was worse. The echo of chattel slavery resonates throughout the Americas and scars modern history. It made colonial […]
Hiding Covidly
A 17-point guide to the new game of Hiding Covidly This is a historic game. You are a virus. Survive. This game requires stealth, evolution, politics, inequality and indifference. Good luck! 1) You’re a virus. Your only evolutionary need is to replicate. Reproduce would be generous, as it remains unclear whether a virus is in fact […]

Cultural Mexico
The largest Spanish speaking country in the world, Mexico is an economic and cultural powerhouse. All too often, tourism to Mexico is relegated to all-inclusive beach resorts. There is nothing inherently wrong with this, but it does overlook a country replete with history, diversity, colour and fun. Over the years I have visited many parts […]
Ecuador in November
Dear friends and fellow travellers – by request I am planning a custom Ecuador trip in November. This will be a small group and a unique tour style. How so? This will be a flexible itinerary – fixed dates for flights and of course guaranteed highlights, but we’ll play with the routing much closer to the […]
I May Cry For You … Argentina
I have been on record a few times contemplating moving to Argentina. Despite its utterly ridiculous political history, the country is magnificent. Subtropical jungle, pampas, high altitude desert, the Andes, Patagonian steppe and Tierra del Fuego – the Land of Fire! 45 million people spread over a massive territory, with a delicious (albeit carnivorous) culinary […]
