The world has become a global market and it is possible to have traditional British or American food in foreign countries like Chile.

However, would it not be nice if you knew in advance whether you can experiment with the local cuisine? Spending your entire vacation eating stuff that you eat daily at home may bring down the overall level of fun and enjoyment in your vacation.

Seafood is very common in Chile. Hence, you can always go in for your favorite sea food dish if you do not find anything else to your liking. Chilean cuisine is partial to herbs and spices. If you like your food very bland, make sure you specify the same when ordering from the menu.

Corn is one of the most wide grown crop in the country. This means that there will never be a dearth of corn based foods in Chile. If you have the habit of eating a lot of corn and corn related dishes, then you will find yourself perfectly at home during your vacation.

It is advisable to have a contingency plan in hand as far as the diet is concerned. Read up on the different types of salads available in major restaurants before landing in Chile.

Now it is easy to say you want to get away for your vacation to Chile from your stressful, managerial, GP locum jobs but it is another thing to actually do it. Especially if you a lover of surfing. So here is one more good reason to get going.

One of the best places in Chile fro surfing is Arica or the City of Eternal Spring. Now most people know about the Lauca National Park and what is to be seen there. But the beaches of this city is considered one of the worlds more premier surf destinations. The surf breaks are simply exhilarating and the temperature is certainly warm enough.

Surfer flock this area not only because they love the waves but also because of the people there. The Chileans are really friendly and helpful people so even if you do not know how to surf chances are you can find one of them to give you lessons.
If you are a much more adventurous and seasons surfer then you will definitely want to try out those massive and challenging waves at El Buey and El Gringo just off Alacran Island.

Wave at El Buey can reach up to 600ft and wont start breaking until it is close to 8ft. Now this is a ride if there ever is one. Now if you plan your visit between April and August you will see the waves at their biggest with barrelling tubes that are near perfect.

Many people want to head abroad on their holiday because that allows them to stay in their comfort zone and to be pampered while sat on deck chairs in Spain or Portugal, or to enjoy the thrills of theme parks in Disney, or the nature of places like Australia. But when I’m looking for a holiday I’m most concerned about reducing the amount of stress that I’m placing on myself rather than increasing it through activities like flying and going through a number of airports simply to get to a destination where you don’t even know the culture.
At these places you might not even be able to speak the language, the food may be too foreign, and you may find yourself out of your depth and just wishing that you could have fish and chips on a beach somewhere, or that you could have a cocktail somewhere on the coast.
This is the exact reason why so many people keep head back to Chile every year. The small towns on the South-East edge of the country has excellent access to beaches for a first. They are what I would consider to be world class beaches that will never get too busy, will never be effected by sharks, and will make that work slaving over investments with Galvan more than worthwhile. But more than that, Chile offers an incredible amount of cultural experience that you can have that simply aren’t available at places like Spain or Portugal. That’s what keeps me going back to Chile every year.

It is always difficult to find the perfect offer for your vacation. To go to the sea or to the mountain? But to go to a decent hotel, interesting place and not to pay a lot. And of course you need touring caravan insurance, visa, so many things to have in mind. However, all the people around the globe do it without thinking so much on these questions. I suggest you a new and different decision for you unforgettable holiday in 2011. Just take some clothes, not large suitcases and a lot of luggage, your toothbrush, contact lenses if you have, some money, not a lot and get ready for a fantastic holiday. You are now thinking what i am talking about? It is easy, go hitchhiking. I know some of you find it dangerous but it is actually not. I have a friend who had the opportunity to feel it and he does not regret. You can meet so many new and interesting people, see different places, without paying any money for fuel. And of course for the maniacs for car, you can have the chance to be in the newest model of Mercedes, why not? I believe that you cannot say no, before try it. Life is too short to think so much about what to do and what not to do… this kind of experience rests for your whole life. You can tell about this to your children, your grandchildren… Do not be frightened, enjoy your life, take all that you can because life is short and you do not know when will be too late. Sea, mountain, ski, swimming, skydiving, partying, disco, it does not matter if it just have thrill in it. It is your life, take it all.
