Summary

Chileans say that, when God had almost completed the act of creation, there was a little bit of everything left, so he threw it all down in a narrow strip of land and called it Chile. The national pride is justifiable, for this is a fantastically diverse country. With an almost comical geographic shape and virtually every climate imaginable, this beautiful, memorable sliver of the world is a place of extremes and contradictions.

About The Author

Ewan Wallace

Originally hailing from Los Angeles, Chris Wallace has been traveling through, and writing about, Central and South America since 2004. He has lived in Colombia, Argentina, Chile, Brazil and Peru. He has spent long weekends at family fincas in Antioquia, traveled along both ends of the Amazon river, failed at tango classes in Buenos Aires, and made frequent escapes to Valparaiso to receive the palliative benefits of coastal air and electric pink sunsets. He has tailored travel and tourism content for entrepreneurs and publishers alike, having covered events as grand and life affirming as Barranquilla’s Carnival on some days while dealing with tragic history by writing about Argentina’s Dirty War on others. More than 10 years in, he feels he’s barely scratched the surface of what this continent has to offer. Having said that, his primary goal is to see more monkeys.
