Re: Climate changing in Chile
I don't think people feel threatened by a teenager so much as they are weary of the constant sounding of the alarm by those who don't practice what they preach. It is a head-scratcher why Ms. Greta sailed across the ocean so she wouldn't emit any carbon, but two crew members are being flown to sail ...

Re: chile lowers airport fees
Now do the back of the envelope calculation on how many are now dead from carbon climate change whatever due to the Haitian immigration to Chile that is definitely NOT a crisis. Go ahead, I'll wait.

Re: would we be nuts to bring my 2 yorkies on vacation with us?
One very important consideration is going to be temperatures when you are planning to travel back and forth. There are minimum and maximum temps for departure and arrival. That prohibited us from being able to travel with our larger dogs based on our necessary travel times of the year and destinatio...

Re: HIV in Chile
I think i commented on the last thread about this, but what is concerning is the ages of the infected. In our area, of youths (15 - 29 yo) diagnosed with HIV, 70% of those are of high school age, between 15 and 18 yo. That is heartbreaking. Condoms? Great idea, except that they are very expensive an...

Re: Is this parcela a fair deal?
No insight on the price, but another question that popped straight into my mind from your description is the notion of access. Is the dirt road a public road or is it a road the family built to access their various parcelas. In other words, are you going to be dependent on whether they want to keep ...

Re: REal estate tax question
I'm looking at a property near Carburga. I currently live in the States, and won't buy until I can visit it. I'm also getting a local set of eyes on it before I decide to fly down to look at it myself. I'm retiring in a year, and plan on using this as a semi-permanent residence. Second, the closest...

Re: Leaving country while temporary visa in process
Which embassy exactly is it that will supposedly have the answer to this question? Because the person is in Chile at the moment and is not a Chilean citizen. I can't fathom which embassy it was that Kathy called that would have had the correct answer when she was here in Chile as a US citizen. I gue...

Re: cranberry juice
Arandano is blueberry and cranberry is cranberry. "Frutos rojos" does not translate directly as "red fruits" but more generally as berries. Blueberries and blackberries are very commonly included in the grouping of "frutos rojos," like if you get a kuchen in the south that is frutos rojos, it will b...

Re: cranberry juice
I think the word for it is cran-BER-ry. You gotta put the accent on the correct syl-LA-ble, and then they know what you are talking about. True story.

Renewing cedula in new town
Hi, kids - I did a search on the foro but could not really find an answer other than Donnybrook's story. Can someone with permanencia definitiva who had their cedula issued at one registro civil just go to PDI and RC in another location (say half a country away in a more temperate climate) to renew ...
