A Chunk of Chile with a Dash of South America

Living and travelling in South America from our base in Chile since 1997. I have personally experienced the extremes here, living in a shed without a bathroom in a poor dangerous part of town to the other extreme of having an elegant dinner with the President at the palace. This blog is about things that I have done or that have caught my attention here as well as travel information that may be useful.

New Year's Resolutions 2009

Happy New Year everyone!!!

2009 is now upon us. What do you think it will bring for you? Have you made any New Year's resolutions?

I know I haven't had much time to work on our South America website (and even less with the blog) but one of my New Year's resolutions is to dedicate a bit more time to the site than what I have done over the last year. I have loads of information from the trips I made at the end of 2008 (the Punta Arenas pages are just three of those days) so it's just a matter of putting it all together and throwing it up on-line (that sounded like an internet drinking party result!!).

As for this month I will be spending a week in Talca training some universities teachers. I'll have the late afternoon off to roam around the countryside checking out what there is to see and do. Also in the next months I'll have to spend a couple of weeks in Concepción, again with some time to check out the local offerings. One of the trips I'd like to do this year is go to Easter Island for a thorough run around and investigative trip. We just have to see when we will be able to squeeze that one in.

Regarding the blog, if I find any interesting tidbits of news both local (Chile) and in other parts of the continent, I'll try and write them up and comment on them.

Here's looking forward to 2009!!!
