Pichilemu. The small humble town reminds a little of the movie 'Jaws'. The small houses serve as weekend residences for Chileans.
When you look at the country on the map, you can see that it is more long than wide, which brings two things with it, namely that all places in the south are forever far away from Santiago, but the coastal towns are close. Like the tranquil Pichilemu, for example.
The rough Chilean coast here offers fun in the water only for the brave. In the summer months, the residents of Santiago crowd here to shake off the pounds they have gained during the year with Zumba dancing on the beach, or to get a short stomach upset from eating large amounts of seafood. No, we're not in Italy...And yes, beach idyll could look different. But Chileans like it. Public Zumba dancing on the beach, or simply rhythmic movement for digestion in the sand. But for surfers, the high waves are a welcome gift. Surfing in 16 degree water temperature. That toughens against everything. The driver was nowhere to be found. Not only Chileans have houses here, even Switzerland was immortalized on road signs. <.figcaption> Small salt lagoon near Pichilemu...The lovingly designed small restaurant and AirBnB invites you to linger. behind closed doors.With a small vineyard in the garden... and with trees that could be from Africa.and Berry, the dog with ADHDFriends can be found everywhere, even if they growl at you first.And then pretending to be buddies once you growl back.Pedestrian area in Rancagua Our last stop in central Chile, before flying to the island, is Rancagua. Again a place where you can rightfully ask yourself...Why actually... Main square with a small music stage in Rancagua Food stands in the pedestrian zone Almost appropriately on my birthday, we leave Chile and thus the entire South American continent and read us again under the Caribbean sun.
PS:
Nearly finished, just a few more pages. The trip was a lot of fun.
you can always find friends, even if they growl at you first.
and then pretend to be a buddie once you growl back.
