low impact living???
This is a top pick! ... feelings...the nastiness in the water is disappointing and in contrast to their beauty. I am surprised that in a place like Chile, and in a vacation seafront town, there wouldn't be more of an effort to take care of the trash. Got to ...

This is a top pick! ... suitcases through an "unsafe" part of town. But, he said, that was one of the few times he felt like he was in Chile. And Valparaiso is that way. Perhaps we carry a preconception of South American cities should be hectic and dirty, a web of narrow ...

The Wind and the Wine and the Pee
This is a top pick! We had our own quiet, little, private room for the first night in Puerto Natales. A handy shared bathroom was right next to us. At 5:30 AM the quiet went away and the bathroom became pee central. A constant flow of ...

The tiny isolated hamlet of Puerto Eden
This is a top pick! Puerto Eden is a tiny isolated maritime hamlet in the middle of the Chilean fjords. The only way to get to this picturesque little cluster of tin houses and peeling boats is by the weekly ferry - and we had the opportunity to come ashore while the ...

Hitting rock bottom in Santiago
This is a top pick! ... over the LTTS and started wondering if our slump wasn't just due to a lack of good wine? The though of five days of tasting in Chile's best wine producing areas had all fired up! We picked up our tiny little rental car, headed south and never looked ...
Taquile Island
This is a top pick! We woke up bright and early on Saturday. I slept like a champ on my reed bed. Actually I had brought my sleeping bag which was a brilliant idea. It wasn't brutally cold that night, but cold enough. Doreen and Stephen joined Bev and me at our ...

A day of shopping - spending money we ain't got!!!
This is a top pick! We went into town to do some shopping today. Bought a few bits and bobs that we needed, and plenty of stuff that we probably don't! Still can't get a signal on my phone, which is probably good after Forest's recent form! We spent the late ...
Good-Bye Desert, Hello End of the World
This is a top pick! GOODBYE DESERT On my last night in San Pedro, I went to the town center to use the high speed internet cafe, the only one in the desert! The wait was long, but well worth it to upload my pictures and get my blogging fix. Before I knew it, the full ...
Habla Ingles??
This is a top pick! Hola!!! First impressions of Santiago? Well, lets just say first impressions don't last, at least not in this part of the world. We thought it was noisy, smelly and thick with smog (which it is), but after a couple of days it grows on you and the bad ...
