I am doing a project for Spanish class. We have to pick a city in South America, then pretend we are taking a vacation there and write about it. I wanted to write about Combarbalá, Chile because they have an astronomical observatory there and also some other interesting things to see and do. I know there is an airport there, I looked on Google Maps, and it doesn't seem to be a very big airport. Can you fly directly to this city from the US, or would I have to take a plane to Santiago and drive down on my imaginary trip. I also can't find a photo of the airport, but that might be because it is small. I went to a few travel sites but they are very confusing and want a lot of information I don't have to book my "imaginary" trip. Thanks for any help!

Like when speaking about places and stuff.

I wanted to visit Chile for a while now and I have a plan to go there this December for 2 weeks. What is best region to visit during this time of the year? Since I plan to have 2 weeks for my travels.. can I hit few regions at one time? What cities and places could I possibly visit? How long should I spend in each?

I will be in Chile (likely Santiago or La Serena) for a year or more. I am a 22 year old male from the U.S. I was just wondering what Chileans around my age do when they go out/party? Differences and similarities between the U.S.?
