I visited Santiago the first time in my life, without speaking Spanish and for business purpose. I stayed at Andrea's place for a bit more than one month, which was the longest stay at an Airbnb for me so far. It was a really good time. I felt very welcome, Andrea helped me several times to communicate and to understand the culture and procedures in Chile. Due to the time difference to Germany, I sometimes had to make phone calls early in the morning when the Cowork was not yet open. I gave Andrea a heads up and this was no problem at all and I was even able to work from home when it suited me better than going to the Cowork.
I am very happy that I found a great flat so spontaneously (booked one day before). Very good and centrally located, everything is within walking distance or reachable by metro and there are nice streets with restaurants and bars nearby. At the weekends, I enjoyed walking to the Cerro San Crístobal, where you get a very nice overview of Santiago.
I had some nice conversations with Andrea and her friends, she speaks very good English and has already seen a lot of the world. Overall, it was a very pleasant and open atmosphere. I am already looking forward to my next visit to Santiago and will definitely stay in Andrea's flat again.
