A city or town

Dear all,

Nice to read you all again.

Today I thought we could write about something slightly different before we get back on the hard routine.

I have been very lucky and chosen to prioritise travelling over a lot of material things that people have to or choose to opt for. For this reason, I have visited  a number of places. Today, I would like to talk about a place about 5 hours from Santiago city. And this is Elqui valley.  I have had the chance to visit this place 3 times. One time with a friend and her boyfriend around 10 years ago,  one time with my mum, my husband and his sister in 2016 and the last time in 2018 with a couple of lovely relatives and my husband.

For this text I will refer to the very last time, I really enjoy every time I go there because I take the opportunity to eat a lot of papayas, drink nice pisco and watch the stars. In some countries like New Zealand or Japan, you can see amazing stars from any small city, in Chile, however, you need to travel south or north to do this. I personally enjoyed doing a star watching tour that was an hour and a half away from Vicuña.  All the people knew a lot about the stars, it was a very beautiful experience and I would love to do it again. I also tried different varieties of pisco, which was nice.

I love the mountain and the sky as you go down  Elqui Valley, I think it is quite unique and It is a wonderful place I strongly recommend.
