The Man From C.H.A.I.T.E.N.

Tue, 20 Dec 2011 | By zapatosrojos | Views [861]

This is a 2 pipe tale so if you don't smoke a pipe, maybe make a cup of tea! Chaiten was a town of over 4,000 people and a central hub for all transport: ferries from the west and all buses north, south and east. But, in May 2008, the volcano that ... Read more >

Puerto Montt to Chaiten

Mon, 19 Dec 2011 | By zapatosrojos | Views [684]

Our 9 hour bus trip south consisted of 3 ferry crossings, as they have no roads in some areas, and during those crossings we saw dolphins, otters, sea lions and penguins!  Sure beats the P&O route Dover Calais.

Mon, 19 Dec 2011 | By zapatosrojos | Views [838]

Fri, 16 Dec 2011 | By zapatosrojos | Views [579]

Brilliant, helped by the fact that we arrived to a warm, summertime city. Santiago is obviously huge, but seems logically laid out with many, many parks, fountains, statues, green areas to shade, sit and chill for a while and tree lined roads. It has ... Read more >

Santiago Dec 2011

Wed, 14 Dec 2011 | By sally-annephillips | Views [1048]

I’m back! – With an over-packed suitcase and poor Spanish grammar, here I am. And I’m loving it! Before I came, I deliberately played down the excitement to myself – I worked up until a few days before I left and purposely didn’t organise too many ... Read more >

If I'm honest with myself I have always loved culture, photography and writing, though I may have not realized it as quickly as I should have. In college I studied Spanish, which required me to live in Latin America for a short time. While I was there ... Read more >

Wed, 7 Sep 2011 | By rubylucas | Views [1646]

So last time I wrote we were at the start of our time in Santiago. We were there for a total of 8 days and now we're in a town called Puerto Varas in the Lakes District in Chile. We're learning that very few things here are simple or logical and that ... Read more >
