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.

Christmas Bazaars in Santiago 2009

There are a number of Bazaars organised by the International Expat community coming up in Santiago should you want to do some early Christmas shopping.

BIG Christmas Bazaar

All funds donated to Charity


And then there is my favourite Bazaar which is organised by the 'Diplomatic Ladies'...

The International Bazaar organized every year by the ADD (Asociación de Damas Diplomáticas) will be on Saturday 28th of November this year. It will be held in the Parque Ines de Suarez, located between Avenida Bilbao and Calle Vasconia in Providencia from 10am to 8pm.

This year there are more than 25 countries participating with crafts, international cuisine and local beverages. In addition, several countries have prepared unique cultural shows.

Please come and join us - along with your friends and families! It will be great fun and your contribution will help alleviate the needs of several disadvantaged people.

Entrance $1500 pesos per person.
Children under 12 free of charge.

My favourite thing about the Damas Diplomáticas fair are the food stands. There is an amazing variety of food from many different countries. Also the products that are on offer have usually been imported by the embassies or expats especially for the occasion.

Hope you enjoy them!
