Chile, The Land Of Charm

This great video was sent to me by a friend. It's a 1937 Travel Talks programme all about 'Chile, the land of charm'. It's fascinating to see Vina, Valpo and Santiago in film from so long ago.

Expats in Chile

If you're looking for information about moving to Chile and interested in meeting fellow expats then you should take a look at the Expats in Chile networking group.

Ariell and Viviana run a great website that is full of information about living in Chile. They organise expat meet-ups and other events and connect foreigners living in towns and cities all over the country. The group already has over 800 members.

Theirs is a friendly and inclusive group- unlike a certain other chile forum, whose owner believes that slandering potential competition (and also potential business partners) and spreading absurd and baseless lies is an ethical and appropriate way to do business. I continue to shake my head in disbelief at his practices.

Anyway, enough of that: Go make some friends!

More renovations...but not in Valpo this time...



If you liked my posts about renovating my house in Valparaiso, you might be interested in seeing the job I did on my new house down in Santa Cruz in the beautiful Colchagua Valley. You might notice quite a few similarities in decor!

And if you're interested in buying a vineyard or fruit orchard in Chile or any kind of real estate in Chile, then you can see some fantastic properties over at www.chileinvestments.net Feel free to get in touch via the contact details on the right hand side.
