    Okay, so I appreciate that this site lists some awesome places and has good reccomendations for travel; however, whoever did the write ups needs to work on their grammer….Some of it just makes absolutely no sense! Also, there needs to be a bit of fact checking:
    “Chile is the land of wine, wine yards, poets and romance. It is the largest country in the world and offers different landscapes and hundreds of opportunities to visit.”

    Note that the write-up says that Chile is “the largest country”. It’s a small country, even in its own continent!

    Anyways, I don’t mean to be the grammer police, but it’s important if you want a good website.

    I appreciate that this is on the list as well… but Easter Island is not “below the southern tip of Chile.” PLEASE correct this. It is west of the main part of Chile, and if my memory serves me right, it is actually closer to Hawaii than the rest of Chile. It is NOT as far south as this description implies.
