Valparaiso


From the city out to the coast, the adventure continues. I've been in Valparaiso and the small towns north for the last few days and it's amazing. So chill here, packed full of happy, vacationing prople, out playing in the sun and exploring the hills all around.

Valparaiso is made up of over 40 hills overlooking the ocean. Pure bliss. All over there are good views and the weather has been perfect. It's like goldilocks said, just right. We've had some beach days, a boat trip around the harbor (valparaiso used to be a major stopping off point for ships going around the southern tip of South America. So lots of history, sights and good vibes here. The streets are full of travelers, locals, sailors and dogs. Very electric around here.

We stayed the first 3 nights north in the small town of Concon.  Much quieter up there and will smaller beaches and great restaurants, it's been a good base. Now I'm staying 2 nights in the hills of Valparaiso with amazing street art all around. Pretty damn amazing.

The days are long, which means both the sun is out for a super long time, but also that which means that we also stay out for a very long time which can be quite entertaining.  Everything starts at a later time and if you missed the morning that's how it goes. Overall the days are pretty darn good here.
