Palacio Cousiño & Museo Violeta Parra (Santiago)
Our first vlog!
We visit former home of the Cousiño family, the Palacio Cousiño, which is today a beautifully restored museum. The Cousiño family made their money mining in Chile and were once one of the richest families in the world; the palace is a neoclassical display of opulence and grandeur that is not to be missed.
Museo Violeta Parra displays the work of the talented poet, artist and musician, Violeta Parra. Parra is best known as the singer of ´Gracias a la Vida´, a classic of the Nueva Cancion Chilena genre.

That Time It Snowed In SANTIAGO
Rare snowfall fell this winter 2017, and here is some of the footage we captured. Snow is only a little bit more likely in Santiago than Los Angeles, and people got a little excited, dancing under the snowflakes at 4.30am and stampeding the (stunning) Bahai Temple in Peñalolen, actually destroying some of the grounds. Hope you enjoy!

Barrio Italia SANTIAGO I Vlog by Querida Recoleta
Barrio Italia in Ñuñoa is my favorite barrio in Santiago! Originally known for antique restoration, this thriving spot was once home to Italian immigrants and today houses the Italian embassy. It is now a wonderful place to go shopping and eat, where your peso goes a long way to support small and independently owned businesses, offering selling wares made here in Chile!
