Chile Experience Travel Guide

Published by South America's most respected publisher of road maps and travel guides, and now available for the first time in the US, Chile Experience represents a new category of South American travel guides. With full color printing throughout, and countless maps, drawings, and photographs, this new guide presents the country in resplendent graphic detail, while focusing specifically on the topics of greatest interest to most travelers to Chile: nature, culture, and adventure.

Part sourcebook and part field guide, Chile Experience features extensive, illustrated practical and background information sections, outdoor activity sections, and field guides to natural and cultural wonders, without skimping on the local detail, maps, and hotel and dining tips that are indispensable in the field. Whether you are in the planning or dreaming stages of your trip, this guide is a must.

Originally from Maine, Josh Howell studied creative writing at Colorado College, and won nearly every literary prize offered at the school before graduating in 1995 and setting out to see the world. Since then, he’s fished for salmon in Alaska’s Cook Inlet, taught inner city youth to kayak on the rivers of western Maine, worked as a carpenter on the island of Nantucket, and traveled extensively throughout South America.

Josh first arrived in Chile in 1997, and has since made his home in the country’s spectacular lake region, where he is building a home in the foothills of the Andes, bringing an end to a decade-long cycle of nomadism. He continues to work actively in travel and sustainable development through his company, Andean Travel, and is planning a number of new publishing projects.
