Chile has a highly developed copper export economy. It is famous for its writers and its wines. Pablo Neruda had a way with words that will make you fall in love with the Spanish language. Chile also has a strong avant-garde theatre tradition and some world-class filmmakers.

Chileans had to deal with the American-supported Pinochet dictatorship (1973-1990). The experience still effects the people – even in the diaspora. It’s quite striking really.
