Let me give you one more reason why Chile’s national anthem 🇨🇱 says it’s “the happy copy of Eden.” Last autumn, I went to the Valle del Elqui. Mid-April. It still felt like summer. Over 300 days of sunshine a year. And you feel it ☀️ 🏔️Huge dry mountains. A strip of green cutting through them. 🚵‍♀️You can bike through the valley roads, camp under open skies, and even drink directly from the clear waters of the Río Claro (I did it) 🏞️ 🥂And yes — this is the cradle of Chilean pisco. But the real magic begins after sunset ✨ This is one of the best places on Earth for stargazing. 🌌 That’s why observatories like Observatorio La Silla and Observatorio Cerro Tololo are there. High altitude, dry air, minimal light pollution and extraordinary clarity. You look up… and the sky feels close ✨ As if the universe is trying to tell us something. Or maybe just reminding us.. how small we really are… ✨👌

This woman spent 6 months traveling solo in Latin America… Overnight buses. Strange cities. No plan. Just livin… Meanwhile grown men in the U.S. 🇺🇸 are in my comments screaming… “Mexico is dangerous… Cartels bro…” It was never about safety… Some people just need a reason to stay small.

Want to pack years worth of memorable experiences into a fraction of the time? Travel alone for an extended period. My biggest trip was 6 months completely solo (as a woman btw). Peru, Bolivia, northern Chile, northern Argentina, Ecuador, and Colombia. Here are some of the things I experienced: • Took endless overnight buses. • Hiked the Inca trail. • Saw the Atacama desert and the salt flats of Bolivia. • Body surfed in the Pacific Ocean. • Savored the Malbec and steaks of Argentina. • Rode on the back of a motorcycle up a mountain trail with no guardrails. • Explored the Cocora Valley and experienced true Colombian coffee. • Learned to scuba dive. • Swam in a bioluminescent bay. • Worked on a vineyard for a month. • Hiked mountains alone just to see the lake at the top. I met amazing people and tried local dishes along the way. Backpacking alone is the absolute fastest way to learn exactly who you are. Plus, you will never run out of stories to tell.

Mexico 🇲🇽 > Chile 🇨🇱 At least in bathrooms 🚽 After spending a few days in Mexico, I realized something: Chile 🇨🇱: you usually have to touch the flush handle with your hand after doing your business. Mexico 🇲🇽: you flush with your foot 👟 Sometimes progress looks small… Until you realize it matters every single day.

@beefcowboydude Haha, that's amazing! We have those in Chile, too, but only in really old houses. I think we should revive those traditions.

Yesterday I visited the pyramids of Teotihuacán , just an hour from Mexico City 🇲🇽. A magical cultural experience, surrounded by more than 20 centuries of history. This place is a reminder that Mexico was home to great civilizations long before the arrival of Hernán Cortés and the mestizo world that would later emerge. History never goes out of style ✨ Mexico has so much to offer 🇲🇽🥹

Mexico 🇲🇽 is loud… until you find a place like this. 📍 Todos Santos 🇲🇽
Magee Clegg@mageeclegg

Mexico 🇲🇽 is loud. Chile 🇨🇱 is quiet. I lived in Mexico for 6 years… Then spent the last year in Chile. I forgot… 🇲🇽 Music everywhere. Vendors shouting. Horns, bells, voices on top of each other. It’s a beautiful kind of chaos… 🇨🇱 Voices stay low. People are aware of each other. Play music on the beach… you’ll get fined for it. I miss Mexico 🇲🇽… but a quiet beach in Chile 🇨🇱 is hard to beat.

My home country, Chile, has been awarded Best International Destination in the first edition of the Forbes Travel Awards 2026. From the driest desert to the southernmost city, gateway to Antarctica, guarded by the Andes and the Pacific Ocean. Bountiful land I love.

If you could witness any animal in their natural environment - what would it be? During the five months motorcycling India, I spent countless days searching for tigers, dreaming of just one close up encounter in the wild. Then, a few days before I was set to leave… magic struck! The energy is like no other - incredible! #tiger #india

Someone has my phone, accessed my photos, and posted these pics of me in India! Because I probably never would have!!! Maybe we all need someone to sneak into our phone and post the real pics! (Gee whiz, I wonder who snuck into my phone without me knowing?)

🇲🇽 vs 🇺🇸?? Just arrived yesterday to Mexico City and realized something surprising for me. Bosque de Chapultepec is stunning… and almost twice the size of Central Park, NY… 🇲🇽 One of the largest urban parks in the world (6.8 km2) And most people rarely talk about it. Global fame is sometimes more about branding than reality…

@MichelleBlin Many decades ago, while traveling with vegetarians … the only thing open was Micky D’s. To the surprise of the cashier, several Big Macs were ordered with no meat! We did not get a discount! 🤣

In LatAm, Chile 🇨🇱 might be winning… At least the Big Mac race 🏃🏻‍♀️🏃🏻‍♂️🍔 How? The Big Mac Index 🍔 It measures something simple: How many minutes the average person needs to work to buy one Big Mac. Simple, fun, and comparable almost anywhere in the world 🌎 Approximate minutes of work needed (and prices in USD): 🇨🇭 Switzerland: 9 min | Big Mac $9.1 🇺🇸 United States: 8–15 min | Big Mac $6.1 Latin America: 🇨🇱 Chile: 28 min | Big Mac $5.4 🇲🇽 Mexico: 33 min | Big Mac $6.2 🇨🇴 Colombia: 38 min | Big Mac $6.2 🇦🇷 Argentina: 40 min | Big Mac $5.5 In some struggling economies, it can take over 90 minutes. 🌟They say time is money… But maybe it’s easier to measure it in Big Macs 🍔😜.

The driest desert on Earth is not the Sahara 🏜️. It’s in Chile 🇨🇱 The Atacama Desert is the driest non-polar desert on the planet. And yet… when rare rains arrive between September and November, something incredible happens. The desert blooms ✨ Thousands of flowers suddenly cover one of the driest places on Earth The Desierto Florido 🌸 Proof that even the driest places on Earth… Can come alive.

One of the most beautiful hot springs in the world is hidden in southern Chile 🇨🇱 . Near Coñaripe, about 1.5 hours from Pucón, you’ll find the stunning Termas Geométricas ♨️🌳 • Bright red wooden walkways wind through a lush green forest. • More than 20 natural hot spring pools. • At the end of the path, an icy waterfall crashes down — a cold plunge only for the brave. 💵 Entrance is around $60 USD p/p — And the best part? You can soak in hot water even while it’s raining in the forest 🌧️ Places like this are why southern Chile is one of the most stunning regions on Earth. 🌿♨️
