In this special episode, we are releasing the very first thing we ever recorded. It was a Friday night, Ben had just finished his last day of work, and we decided to record our thoughts and how we felt as we prepared to leave in a week for a year of travel. This is an off-the-cuff episode, meaning it's been extremely lightly edited and is full of raw emotion. 

We hope you enjoy this fun one, full of anticipation for the year ahead!

A focused episode on Chilean food and drink: what to eat in Chile, from empanadas and pastel de choclo to seafood on the coast, plus a guide to Chilean wine and other must-try drinks. If you're a food-focused traveler planning a trip to Chile, this episode will tell you what dishes and drinks to seek out and where.

Two very different sides of Chile in one episode: the Central Valley, home to Chile's famous wine regions like Colchagua and Casablanca Valley, and Chiloé, an archipelago known for its wooden churches, folklore, and unique island culture. We cover wine stories, beach towns along the coast, plus what to expect when island-hopping to Chiloé. A great episode for travelers interested in Chilean beaches, wine, and the myths and legends of the Chilote's culture.
