FLYING TO CHILE


Now I´m flying from Rio to Santiago do Chile over the Aconcágua in the Andes. It´s an amazing view! Normally all flights are during the day so you can enjoyt a lot.

I flew with the Gol, a popular brazilian airline, and costed around 500 US round trip from Rio. Lan Chile also offers good prices in their lastminute online service.

You find many interesting hostels but if you´d like a hotel you may choose Villafranca Petit Hotel, I paid around 60 US. Very cozy and you have breakfast hearing classical music, that´s a difference! They are located in Providencia which is a quite central but quiet and chic neighborhood.

Don´t miss the pisco sour at the Liguria Bar, the decoration and the waitress service are a must. Another thing you must do is to eat at Donde Augusto in the Mercado Central ( the old train station, beautiful!), but they open just for lunch. Reserve a day to walk around the area ( Santiago is not a dangerous city) and ask for the ceviche and then ask for any fish, you will die!
