Back in October I traveled to Chile and wrote about my experiences here (and here, here, and here) on the blog. Now, five months later, I'm finally getting around to writing about my trip on National Geographic Traveler's Intelligent Travel blog. Below is my first post, "Out of Office: Authentic Chile."

Traveler staffer Giovanna Palatucci writes about her trip to Chile, where she quickly discovered there's more to this South American country than the dry Atacama Desert to the north and the snowy peaks of Patagonia to the south. This is the first post about her trip.

When I stepped off the plane in Santiago, not only was I stepping foot in Chile for the first time, but in South America as well. My general knowledge of Chile extended little past the northern Atacama Desert, snowy southern Patagonia, and the mysterious Easter Island. However, I was here to explore its heartland and to try and get a bead on the culture.

I traveled to several of Chile's wine regions, each characterized by rolling valleys covered by miles and miles of grapevines. The Colchagua, Maule, and Curicó valleys are three of 14 wine regions in Chile, and each one showcases the best of Chilean culture. In search of authentic Chile? Here's what to eat, drink, hear, and see on your next trip.
