Termas, asados, shooting video and driving shuttle\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 that was the daily routine. I also climbed the volcano, the Villarrica (2.840m) with a guide friend of mine so I saved the 80US it costs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><a href=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/-bjKVI_6PSOM\/URpBtms7RmI\/AAAAAAAAEAY\/0VBM-yzHU1o\/s1600\/crater.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/-bjKVI_6PSOM\/URpBtms7RmI\/AAAAAAAAEAY\/0VBM-yzHU1o\/s640\/crater.jpg\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/-RUPAfnB1I3A\/URpBnzZTsFI\/AAAAAAAAEAQ\/gFM_d99zavM\/s1600\/volcan.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/-RUPAfnB1I3A\/URpBnzZTsFI\/AAAAAAAAEAQ\/gFM_d99zavM\/s640\/volcan.jpg\" width=\"640\" height=\"178\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/-OADyPMr50Kk\/URpBVulJkVI\/AAAAAAAAD_o\/VSugNICDC1U\/s1600\/IMG_2018.JPG\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/-OADyPMr50Kk\/URpBVulJkVI\/AAAAAAAAD_o\/VSugNICDC1U\/s640\/IMG_2018.JPG\" width=\"426\" height=\"640\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/-K3rHV15IIrk\/URpBaKkoD6I\/AAAAAAAAD_w\/a4G3NlSxx_o\/s1600\/IMG_2053.JPG\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/-K3rHV15IIrk\/URpBaKkoD6I\/AAAAAAAAD_w\/a4G3NlSxx_o\/s640\/IMG_2053.JPG\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/-dJ_kN1jtFSI\/URpBlvPBprI\/AAAAAAAAEAI\/bv_3syxbiEY\/s1600\/volc.JPG\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/-dJ_kN1jtFSI\/URpBlvPBprI\/AAAAAAAAEAI\/bv_3syxbiEY\/s640\/volc.JPG\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The week after new years I got my boat from a friend and started to paddle.
