  • Puerto VarasPuerto Varas was a 3hr local bus ride from Valdivia. A small town on the edge of Lago Llanquihue, overlooked by Volcan Osorna and again with an obvious German heritage. This is most evident in the 1915 Inglesia Posted by gavandkerryn in Gav & Kerryn in South America | Apr 21, 2012
  • ValdiviaIt was only a 2 local bus ride from Pucon to get to Valdivia, the centre of German immigration during the 19th century. Beer, strudel and bratwurst abounds and this is why we came here. Not the most Posted by gavandkerryn in Gav & Kerryn in South America | Apr 19, 2012
  • PuconPucon was our first stop in Southern Chile. It was a picturesque little town on the edge of Lago Villarrica with Volcan Villarrica overlooking it. It felt and looked a lot like a ski village in Switzerland or Posted by gavandkerryn in Gav & Kerryn in South America | Apr 18, 2012
  • Viña Del MarViña Del Mar is just around the corner from Valparaiso, but it couldn't be more different.

  • San Pedro & La Serena[i]Arriving into San Pedro was like stepping into a western. Dusty streets and adobe houses. At first glance it resembles a bit of a ghost town.
