If you´re a finance / econ nerd like me, Chile is interesting. Chile has one major highway, and as you drive it, you can see almost the entire economy.
In Patagonia, it is salmon, sheep, tourism and wood.
The next fifth is cattle, milk and agriculture.
Then it´s timber.
Then wine.
And then Santiago - banks, corporate headquarters, universities, government and other services.
Then the rest is copper, beaches and tourism.
The highway is in excellent shape, and it´s a boring ride (thankfully). But it is fascinating to see the scenery change, and the economy change, as you move from one region to another.
