Eduardo and Claudio are what makes AirBnB so wonderful - how else could we have met such pleasant, gracious, hospitable and friendly hosts! In a very long layover in Santiago, we turned what could have been endless dull hours at the airport into a heart-warming meeting at their wonderful home, during which time we enjoyed some of Claudio's fantastic cooking (taking our special dietary requests into account), and had the chance to take a nap on the comfortable beds. We also took a great stroll downtown - so close to their home - and enjoyed an evening coffee with them in a Santiago landmark. In total, it was the perfect start to our journey and such a wonderful way of recovering from two long flights from Vancouver, via Toronto... hosts like this are rare, precious and absolutely worth detouring via Santiago!
