Hi! While studying Law and reading a lot of World and Chilean history, I fell in love with the legacy and heritage of our beloved Chile and my adored Santiago 🤍❤️💙. In my childhood, I traveled to Iquique, Antofagasta, the Atacama Desert, Lake Peñuelas, Coquimbo, Los Vilos, Viña del Mar, Valparaíso, and further south: Longaví, Chillán Viejo, Salto del Laja, Talcahuano, Temuco, Valdivia, Puerto Montt, Frutillar, and Chiloé Island. Come, book my tour! I'll tell you what I've learned about Colonial and Modern Santiago, plus there will be fun facts at each point of interest to spice up the tour. See you there! Long live Chile! 💙❤️🤍
