Chiloé
|
Just a few kilometers off the Chilean coast of South America is a rather large Island called Chiloe. The Island of Chiloe could easily be mistaken for Ireland with rainbows, myths of strange creatures, sea fairing tradition, potatoes, and an almost revolutionary view of the Island as an independent political entity. We want to introduce you to the communities of Quellon and an Ancud, along with some of the local flavors in terms of both food and politics.

Environment

Global Warming is one of those things we tend to think about as
slowly happening over time in the background; well, at least until a
lake just disappears. That is what happened in the Chilean Patagonia
recently. A lake fed by a Glacier, suddenly just dried up over about
a month. We have reported on the big picture of Global Warming in
South America and Southern Chile before, but this is one of those
events everyone is perhaps a little to quick to blame on Global
warming. Well the lake is now returning. So was this a case of Global Warming in
Southern Chile?

How to buy real estate in Chile, South America
|
|
The first problem we encountered was their unwillingness to tell us
what properties they had for sale or rent.
| Latin America in general is not particularly famous for the regulation of the real estate industry. In places like Guatemala, the country is five times larger on paper than in physical geography. In terms of government registration of property, Chile does not suffer from such problems. What is still lacking is any type of standards or regulation of the real estate agents. There is no legal barrier, beyond the general requirements for opening a business, to anyone's becoming a real estate agent; and the business practices of the agents reflect it. We take a look at some of the problems with the real estate industry, and what to watch out for in purchasing properties in Chile. |

Environment
|
The international Gold mining company Geocom Resources, along with Kinross Gold Corp., both United States based companies are quietly buying up the mineral rights to the Espolon Valley in the heart of the Chilean Patagonia totaling over 91,000 hectares (353 square miles), with over 318 claims in the region X. We are closely watching these developments as Gold mining operations have the potential for incredible environmental devastation, even under the closest regulation. We need your help to insure the environmental assault on South America's Patagonia is brought to the full light of day. We even have a simple email in both Spanish and English prepared for you to help us let everyone know.

Lago Budi, Boca Budi, and Puerto Saavedra
|
|
...the water from the tsunami suddenly raised the level of the lake,
but the water never receded back into the ocean...
| Lago Budi is one of those geological wonders of the World that defies proper description. As South America's only salt water lake, situated just a few Kilometers from the Pacific ocean, it is as if Lake Tahoe was directly on the California Coast. From the high ridges on the eastern side, you can look out over the lake to the ocean; you feel, as much as hear, the ocean surf crashing on the beach and echoing across Lago Budi. |
