My Valpo

Valparaíso, All I can say is WOW. After taking a bus from Santiago, we arrive to this dreamy, surreal city on the coast of Chile. Right away I fell in love. Street art is EVERYWHERE. You can barely find an untouched wall without colorful paint. What makes this city even more charming? the way the city is built. The houses are on top of one another on the hills facing the shore. At any point you can see water. To get from the city center into the hills (where our hostel was) you have to take an "ascensor" these hundred year old structures will relieve the painful hike up the steep stairs to get to the top of the hills. We were staying on Cerro Concepcion, where everything was within a walkable distance
