Chile's San Pedro de Atacama Desert

🚌 Arrived in Atacama via Uyuni and Calama! The difference in bus quality is striking as soon as you cross the border 😮
🏠 Accommodation: La Casa del Sol Naciente (Dormitory, 15,000 KRW) – Hippie vibes, decent for the price, just so-so.

🌙 Valle de la Luna Tour (Moon Valley)

A red desert landscape that feels like another planet 🚀

Sunset sky → Stunning crimson sunset 🌅

Extreme temperature differences → Windbreaker is a must! 🧥

Small group, plenty of personal stargazing time

View binary stars and southern hemisphere constellations through telescopes 🌌

A night full of starlight paired with Chilean wine 🍷

Thanks to the "star-loving" guide, the experience is twice as moving

💡 Tips

Chile's cost of living = noticeably high in South America 💸

Compare tour agencies to find the best deal 🏷️

Bring a tripod for photos (missing the Milky Way would be a shame 😭)

👉 In summary, Atacama is
“Moon adventures by day, starry journeys by night” 🌙✨
A place where the desert and stars completely captivate travelers!
