Today I'm going to write about the best holidays that I have ever had until now. It happened in this year when I visited alone Southern Chile (exactly to Puerto Montt) at the first time by plane. I just bought the tickets one week preciding of the event. Although they were a little expensive it's worth the trouble, feeling how nature (clean air, trees, birds, cold wind) gives a good welcome to visitors.
When I was just before the flight I wasn't nervous because seeings landscapes (mainly if I sat in the left side of the plane for watching the Andes) is an experience unforgettable. Then the plane took off, I felt how movement was making faster each minute that went by. I watched everything was becoming tinier until smog didn't let me to make out further Santiago.
In this way I could see mountains that I have never imagine (though I don't know all the names of every one, I attempted to call each mountain in my way such as "cat's claw mountain", "foggy mountain", "Next to Argentina mountain."), lagoons (Maule), lakes (Calafquén, Panguipulli, Ranco, Llanquihue), volanoes (Tupungatito, San José, Villarrica, Osorno, Calbuco, Llaima), trees (little black points) by the air. The flight was an experience I'll never forget and it was all a challenge for my curiosity during the 105 minutes of trip on the clouds. When I arrived to Puerto Montt, I decided to leave the airport right away for breathing the clean air. Suddenly I took a bus which it moves me closer to the city and when I arrived to Puerto Montt's bus station I decided to feel the cold wind under a tree. On the next day I wanted to go to Alerce Andino National Park by the village of Correntoso (it's really nice, where sheep bleat you feel nature still exists), where you can hear to songs of different kinds of birds (Hued-Hued, Seven colours, Loica, etc) and see the leafiness of the forest (I saw trees such as Manío, Alerce, Quila, etc) which they give you happiness and tranquillity.
I stayed in a hut for 2 days and then I came back to Puerto Montt for visiting some places interesting such as Manuel Montt viewpoint, Chinquihue stadium and Angelmó during 1 day.
The next day I took a bus back to Santiago sleeping all the night.
