In my country, Spring is starting. I live in Chile, South America. In my country there are all kinds of climates as it´s a long and thin country. We have the Andes on one side and the Pacific Ocean on the other. The country is safe enough even for youngsters to come with backpacks and tents.
All of South America is starting spring. There are beaches, forests, desert, mountains. You name it, we have it. happy
I´m inviting you. Would you like to come and visit us? Where would you go?

I'd like to visit Chile someday. Actually I know this portuguese girl that lives in Santiago and she's told me certain things about your country. I just don't get why the title of your thread has nothing to do with the content of the same?


myLot reputation of 95/100. marguicha (3464)   ranked 26 out of 5,315 in travel  3 months ago

I´m sorry. I just wanted to say that in South America we are starting Spring and that you are invited to visit us. happy

Actually, I am on the other side of the spectrum, and I would like to escape summer. I live in California in the USA, and we are still seeing temperatures as high as 100+ degrees Fehrenheit, and we are only 3 days away from October! This summer has lasted way too long. Not only have we still had to endure the heat, which I think we can all agree, we are sick of, we haven't even had our first seasonal rain shower either. So it's hot, dry, and crunchy. Please hurry winter!!!

Hey marguicha
I too experience all the seasons here. And in a few days, monsoon is going to get over and winter season is going to begin. And but still I would like to visit south america and love to see how it is because I didn't visit there anytime. So, would surely want to come there but I can't.

Hi my friend. Winter in my home country lasts from December until February and at the moment it is autumn. That lasts from September until November. In January of this year, when it was winter, I did manage to escape over to South Africa. I took my toddler son to Cape Town and the Garden Route.

I would love to come over to South America. There are so many places there that I would like to visit. Most of all I adore thinking about the possibility of visiting Machu Picchu in Peru. Then I would travel down to Chile to see Santiago and the lake district. I would pop over to the border of Argentina and Brazil to see the waterfall. Then I would carry on traveling across Brazil until I reach Rio De Janeiro. On another trip I would love to visit Cartagena de Indies, San Andres and Providence Island in Colombia.

I would really like to meet you if I come over to Chile.

You will, friend, when you come. I have a place in my house and in my heart for you. The Cataratas de Iguazú are awesome. They are in the frontier of three countries, in the Paraná river. Rio de Janeiro is awesome too. I visited ir a long time ago.
I do want to go to Machu Picchu, but I wouldn´t like to go alone.
I´m sending you a picture of myself at the Iguazú waterfalls.Hug

hi marguicha that sounds lovely. I would relocate in a heartbeat if I could find work. But I would have to learn Spanish first and find it quite complicated. I would love to go somewhere to the seaside I think. Have a wonderful happy springtime. Winter will be here quite soon and I hate it.......

My South America!!!!!!, 7 years ago I live in Mexico, and I'm Argentina, and Chile are so close to not even know him, I would like at some point to go visit and learn a little more Chile, I have frieds Chilean Mapuche Communities, I like their music, and scenery, the simple way to treat people, hopefully at some point all have the oppurtunity to know this beatiful country.


myLot reputation of 95/100. marguicha (3464)   ranked 26 out of 5,315 in travel  3 months ago

I have been several times to Buenos Aires and went once to Bariloche. In fact I had my honeymoon in Buenos Aires, many decades ago. From what part of Argentina are you? I love your music, from tangos to those wonderful songs I know by heart from Los Chalchaleros and Eduardo Falú.

I'm from the City of La Plata, Capital of the province of Buenos Aires, 54 km. from Capital Federal (DF). Now that I'm far from the city appreciate many things that still living there did not appreciate. In fact I was 6 months ago vacations and saw every corner of my town with a love thar never imagine having. I love my country, I love my city. I will talk more about it, I hope not to bore... Have nice day, and all also have a good day.


myLot reputation of 95/100. marguicha (3464)   ranked 26 out of 5,315 in travel  3 months ago

I never tire of going to Buenos Aires. I think it´s one of the most interesting cities in South America, with all the splendour of mansions and beautiful buldings and neighborhoods. Just the cafés where you can read a paper with noone bothering you, the bookstores, the many plays, opera, ballets... It´s wonderful.
Where are you living in Mexico now? Mexico is another country I love.


amichi (44)  3 months ago

I live in the stare of Tamaulipas, northeastern Mexico, a semi-desert zone in some places, I personally live near the mountains, where rivers are tributaries of mountains with clear water and enough vegetation, I'm used to their food, but initially cost me much since 99.9% of food is spicy, pepper chile, but the scenery is beatiful places, in different places are not as touristic as Cancun or Acapulco.
There is a particular place that I liked a lot and not so well known Mennecke Wilitla, is just 350 kilometers from Mexico City, in the heart of the Huasteca region. You can find information through the Internet

Of course you would! Just stop fearing planes. They are much better than cars. I´m sure more people die from car accidents than from plane crashesrasp.

We´g have a wonderful time!!!

We only have summer/dry and rainy seasons. Though during December to February, it is pretty cold in here but we don't have snow.

I wish i can visit countries having this season and I am looking forward this December.

Thank you for inviting us in your country. It is one of my dream to visit South America if finances is not problem but... I want to visit countries that are rich in culture and nature. You must be proud that your country is blessed in such a waythumbup
