Resources for Travel, Study Abroad, or Living in Santiago, Chile

Santiago is a great city to live in if you want to learn Spanish and have a life changing experience. Here is a list of sites that can help you travel, study or work in Chile.

• The Chile Information Project – From the website, “CHIP is a definitive news, information and travel resource for Chile.”

• La Guía de Santiago – Another events guide in Spanish.

New Carnival

I really like The Carnival of Cities because it usually only accepts high quality articles. More than that, if you want to get some good travel ideas, the carnival publishes articles from all of the world. One of my articles made it in their newest edition, so check it out.

Stay tuned... big post coming
