Most drunken impulse purchases are followed by immediate and immense regret, but not this one.
Bank worker Jamie Ather had a bit of a wild night out in Glasgow recently, only to wake up and realise he had bought a £520 flight to Brazil.
The 24-year-old tried to get his money back, but the airline refused to refund him, so Jamie decided to pack his bags and head to South America.
He didn’t regret it.
Jamie walked the Machu Pichu trail, hung out with sloths in the jungle, and partied in Rio de Janeiro.
He uploaded pictures from his incredible trip to his Instagram account (Warning: looking at his pictures will result in some serious Fomo).

Speaking to the Daily Record, Jamie said: ‘Visiting the sloth sanctuary was one of the highlights – I completely fell in love with the animals.
‘It was just an odd little place run by an old Brazilian woman in the middle of nowhere. I ended up staying for a couple of days and helping out with the sloths that had been rescued from poachers.’
For Jamie, the incredible trip wasn’t just a bit of a jolly, but also a boost to his confidence.
He said: ‘Everyone who knows me knows that I was so nervous about going to South America on my own, so it has given me loads of confidence to have gone and actually had an amazing time.
‘It has really made me realise that you just need to take risks sometimes and get over your fear if you want to get the most from life.’
