Best X-mas Ever!

Ice Trekking with Cramp-ons!

Favoritos de los Lagos!
As we were eating a delicious torte at Cassis in Pucon after 4 fabulous days in Los Lagos, we asked everyone what were their favorite things about Los Lagos. And here is what we said: ALIYA (1) Almost lost my tooth (2) The Green Lagoon …
Star Gazing!
The Atacama Dessert sky is one of the clearest for star gazing! It’s dry conditions (it usually gets less than a millimeter of rain/year), high altitude (8,000 feet), and low level of light pollution (there is pretty much nothing else there besides San Pedro) make …
