La Vega Chica
A warehouse filled with little household kitchens and bustling matrons, where you can get the cheapest, tastiest, and most authentic chilean meals!
Cramped Space
There's always bubbling pots and clattering dishes in the background.
Dig in!
Everyone eats here, from construction workers to schoolkids.
Pescadito Frito
They get their ingredients straight from La Vega Grande (which also sells meets and seafood), so you know everything's fresh.
Closing Time
The passageways are a bit more navigable once the lunch hour dwindles down. The place will stay open until five, but fortunately it isn't so crazy all the time.
Plaza de Armas at Night
The artists that usually populate the plaza are closing up shop.
Welcome, Spring!
They say that la Primavera is arriving but it still gets pretty cold at night!
Gay Pride
A small gay pride festival held at Plaza Baquedano. Chile has a long way to go in terms of gay rights, but every little bit helps.
Rodrigo y Justina
At a barbecue at his best friend Ariel's house.
La Nana
Paty comes in once a week to cook and clean for Rodrigo.
Indigenous Art
At an exposition at the foot of the Cerro Santa Lucia.
Easter Island Crafts
This woman is from La Isla de Pascua. She's very nice!
Jaime
I practically lived at his internet cafe for the first month. By day he's a performing magician!
Election Time
Politicans go a bit overboard with their campaigning. Larger than life cutouts and signs completely overwhelm popular thoroughfares.
El Fuente Aleman
A fountain commemorating the Chilean centennial in Parque Forestal, gifted by the German government.
El Claustro
Home to a special sisterhood of hermit nuns.
