San Pedro de Atacama
I suppose we are all searching for paradise in one way or another. Well part of our search is complete. We are in Hotel Awasi in San Pedro de Atacama, in the high desert of the Atacama in northern Chile. It is everything we thought and much more. I stress that we are talking about the hotel not the town. We arose in Santiago at 4:30 to catch a …

On a marché sur la lune
... flops, t-shirts et crème solaire, quel bonheur! Dans le bus venant de l'Altiplano bolivien, tout le monde renifle et a le nez qui coule. Un peu de soleil fera du bien à tout le monde. Surtout que San Pedro de Atacama est une petite ville très zen (mais très chère), très touristique, avec des rues en terre, peu de voitures, des murs en briques de terre et le drapeau national fièrement déployé un peu partout.
