Stopover in Santiago de Chile

Hi people,

We have just spent three days in Santiago de Chile. Santiago is a city full of life (and people), with many high buildings, cafes, restaurants and very cosmopolite neighborhoods.  Chileans were very kind with us given how rusty our Spanish is.... We loved our time spent in Providencia, which is one of Santiago's indie neighborhood, and a place we recommend. Otherwise, Santiago is like any other large city, some places are very nice to visit, others are better to avoid (dirty, grey and unpleasant). With regards to the food, we tried the famous enpanadas (stuff pastries with either pino = beef stew, or  queso = cheese), we also tried porotos a typical chilean meal made of beans, corn and pumpkin. 
We are now preparing for our next flight =>Peru. Keep u posted.
Cheers,
Marie
