Northern Chile is a land of extreme
contrast, where two uniquely Andean environments,
the Altiplano and the Atacama Desert, combine with
unpredictable and overwhelmingly beautiful results.
Chile's southern region of lakes
and volcanoes is an expression of nature's inimitable
aesthetic and startling exuberance. Between volcanic
cataclysms, glacial sculpting, torrential rivers
and massive temperate rainforests, this is very much
a landscape in flux, modeling and remodeling itself
before our eyes.
Patagonia is the scene of the
world's great adventures. Even if we know little
of the place, the name itself inhabits our subconscious,
whispering of an unknown finger of the earth, el
fin del mundo. We picture large silent spaces, tempestuous
seas, windblown solitude.
