My visit to Santiago Chile (part 1)

I had the opportunity to visit Santiago Chile in June 2026. My bestie Tracie’s daughter moved there 2+ years ago for her husbands work so I took the opportunity to tag along on one of Tracie’s visits.

Too many tables of fish!!

It was a lovely outing and gave me a good idea of what Santiago offered in the way of goods. My suitcase will be heavier and my pocketbook a bit lighter… it’s a good balance!
