Hello Eugenio, I would love to give my impressions of my trip,.. I absolutely loved it and am completely in love with Chile. Our trip was centered in Santiago which I found to be full of warmth and heartfelt welcome from the Chileans. They really seem to love tourist and are all to ready to assist. My entire stay, I felt completely safe, never encountered anything but warmth from the people. The food was unbelievable and I am completely taken with their love for all things fresh from the bread, to the cheese, to produce and meat. The choices for dining are endless and we were able to sample many different types of cuisine including Peruvian, Chilean (both traditional and contemporary), I love the empanadas de queso and cant even begin to describe my love for Pisco Sours, we also sampled the desserts which were wonderful. The weather was great through most of our stay, although we did encounter rain in the south and were slightly hampered by flooding in Punta Arena (the river adjacent to our hotel flooded and we were stranded for a few days in the hotel, but the staff at the hotel were great and the experience just added to the adventure and left us with great photos and stories to tell. Huilo Huilo was incredible, Torres de Paine was unbelievable and it was an all around great experience. I hope to repeat it in the very near future. Thank you so much for everything and I will definitely be in touch with my plans to return to Chile soon. Linda Story
