IES Santiago is a must!

IES Santiago is a must. The city is so fun and there are always so many things to do. The staff at IES is very helpful and genuinely very nice. The food is awesome. I hope you like bread tho... The weather is really nice. It never rains. The view of the Andes Mountains from anywhere in the city is mesmerizing. Torres del Paine, San Pedro de Atacama, Valparaiso, Pucón, and Chiloé are just some of the incredible places you can travel to in Chile. I was able to see real penguins in their natural habitat! The clinical observation program with IES was unreal. I was able to witness heart surgeries, brain surgeries, and even births. Learning spanish in Chile can be difficult with a lot of slang but you pick it up very fast and people are so nice and always willing to help.
