We just realized that we have two months left in Aysen. That's not too much time to explore what we haven't seen. So we've decided to live it up and see something new every weekend. Yesterday my coteacher took me around the area in her car and stopped at every place that was worth stopping and dedicating 5 minutes of your life. So let me say, we stopped every 5 minutes or so to see mountains, beautiful views and many waterfalls. Aysen, Chile's 11th region, is home to the best wildlife and most amount of nature. Still, to this day, its hard to come by some of life's basic essentials such as water and enery. A glass of water is the same price or sometimes even more expensive than a glass of coca-cola. Electricty is very expensive. Many companies want to come in and build dams. But Patagonians are against it, against the damage that it will cost to their nature, to their home.
