Santiago de Chile

My 2nd trip to South America. On this trip, I started in the lake district & ended in the capital district. I'm glad I did it that way. Forgetting my iPod was a major disappointment. Besides flying between Puerto Montt & Santiago, I used public transportation to get everywhere. Since I can't go without music while riding a bus (or train), I had to use a portable DVD player and play the few CDs I brought. Yes, I got a few stares lol! Santiago did feel like a smaller Buenos Aires to me, but it seemed more expensive. I stayed in a very nice area and was able to use the Metro to get to most places. For me, riding the Metro is a must when visiting any city. Like Rick Steves, I try to experience places like a local. I don't know anyone in Chile, but I did my best. I'm also wearing one of my favorite shirts (Yeah Yeah Yeahs). I judge any trip by whether or not I wish I had more time when it was time to leave. I would like to see more of Chile some day!
