And that pretty much wraps up my stay in Chile. There is a whole other trip or three to do down here. Argentinian Patagonia will be calling my name. And the deserts of the north. And the wine country...

It is a stunning corner of the world. Often on these trips I find myself asking myself what I have learned from the journey. In places like Cambodia and Syria these are difficult questions. Here it is simple. We are lucky to be here, on this beautiful planet. We are lucky to have the short amount of time that we are granted. And we are lucky that our beautiful planet hasn't killed us (yet).
