Santiago, An Alpha World City=Lots of Peeps in the Hood

With a bakers dozen days left in Chile, I took refuge in Santiago's western metropolitan area thanks to a good friend from Valle Nevado who offered the place to me upon learning of my early contract termination. Within walking distance from a metro station, grocery store, and a gym, I have had the most relaxing care-free time any unemployed person could ask for....

I made it up for some of the best views in the city during sunset hours. One evening at the hill of Santa Lucia and the other higher lift access hill with a 60ft. statue of the Virgin Mary, and a 20ft cross.

The days were also filled in with amazing seafood, walking though the bodega, a crazy sushi rolling session, some birthday partying, and lots of time just Chilling Hard with the Chilean peeps in their hood(see photo below). Next it's off to the beach, the longboard promised land, between where the wine grows, the salmon are caught, and the roads flow like the groomers of Steamboat. Nothing like bring back to Vina del Mar to close up a four month full circle.

PEEPS IN THE HOOD!!!
