An example of her quirk and experienced wisdom? How about this post: “Visa and Reciprocity Fees in South America, and How to Legally Get Around Many of Them” (sly gal that Eileen) or “Six Surefire Ways to Get Sick While Traveling“. Yes, she does tell you how to avoid them as well – in her own quirky-style. Now that is perspective you shouldn’t leave home without.

The Flight of the Platypus – outdated with the last post made in April, 2008 but worth a mention for the extent of photos taken by a guy from Alberquerque, New Mexico who ventured throughout Chile with a lens and motorbike.
Life in Porvenir, Chile – sweet, ‘family who has moved abroad’ type of blog about “learning, laughing, living at the end of the earth”. Many photos with posts centering around daily life living in the small town of Porvenir in Tierra del Fuego (Land of Fire in English).
Chile From Within – political news posts plus commentary by a bit of a rebel rouser-type who has a good feel for investigative journalism and the valuable info it can provide. Good for those wanting to get a quick introduction to what has been going on in the country in the recent past. Most recent post is Oct, 2010 – hopefully the author will update soon.
