Other Where to go in Spanish-speaking Latin America in January?

1 Upvotes

hello all,

I would like to do a trip to a Spanish-speaking Latin American country for about 4 to 6 weeks in January/February. I’ve been to countries: along

Mexico twice, extensively

Columbia,

Ecuador - only did Quito, beaches and Galapagos

Guatemala

Costa Rica

Argentina— did north mainly, didnt get down south

ideally, I would like to go to a new country. I was thinking of going to Peru but I’m concerned January. I was also thinking about Chile but don’t know about El Niño. I hear it’s also expensive.

Any recommendations? I want to try and avoid bad weather

I speak Spanish pretty well

thanks for your input

This is one of the best museums I've ever been to. Entrance costs MXN 210 (USD 12) and cards are accepted. Try to go during the week or if you go on a weekend try to be there early, as soon as they open. I saw long lines when I left at noon.

The museum was excellent. The only thing that made me sad is seeing all this display of ancient traditions and wondering how much the evil Spaniards destroyed.

Discussion/question Rich Latinos

7 Upvotes

This might be the dumbest Reddit I post. Anyways this is a question from mainly Latinos in the states. I hear a lot of Latinos in the states talk about facing culture shock when they visit their relatives in Latin America who come from lower income backgrounds than them. I’m curious to hear if any Latinos in the states expirence the opposite. Where there relatives in Latin America are richer than them. 😭

Discussion/question 12 DE OCTUBRE - NADA QUE CELEBRAR

25 Upvotes

Hace 534 años un grupo de ladrones, asesinos, genocidas y violadores invadieron un continente para robar, saquear, matar y robar.

No hubo conquista, no hubo "encuentro". Hubo saqueo, muerte y destrucción. Fue una total desgracia para las civilizaciones que ya existían en este continente. No contentos con lo anterior, trajeron personas de un tercer continente (África) para esclavizar. El infierno es poco castigo.

534 años después América Latina sigue pagando el precio (claro, nosotros también tenemos una parte de la culpa) de esta desgracia. He hablado mucho de la pérdida económica, pero también pienso en la pérdida cultural. La imposición de una cultura foránea sobre las civilizaciones indígenas destruyó conocimientos milenarios sobre medicina, tecnología, matemáticas, agricultura, etc. Todo para "evangelizar".

Hoy no hay NADA que celebrar.

News Trump cheers Bolsonaro Jr’s advance on Lula in Brazil, but EU fears for Mercosur alliance

Thumbnail
euobserver.com
6 Upvotes

Is Europe right to worry about what a Bolsonaro victory could mean for Brazil–EU relations?

Hi everyone 👋 Lucia from EUobserver here. Full disclosure: I’m sharing our own reporting, but I’m mainly interested in hearing the Brazilian perspective on this.

After the first round, Flávio Bolsonaro advanced to the runoff against Lula, with Donald Trump publicly celebrating the result.

From Brussels, there’s another layer to the election: what could a Bolsonaro presidency mean for Brazil’s relationship with Europe and the EU-Mercosur alliance?

There are concerns that a change of government could pull Brazil closer to Trump’s US and complicate cooperation with Europe on trade, climate and foreign policy.

But that might also be a very European way of looking at a Brazilian election.

So I’m curious: How much do relations with the EU, Mercosur and the US actually matter to Brazilian voters right now?

And would a Bolsonaro victory fundamentally change Brazil’s place in the world — or is Europe overestimating the foreign-policy implications of an election that will ultimately be decided on domestic issues?
