Punta summer postcards

Chilling ...






Greetings from Chile!!

































Chile is fascinating. Forget the crowded and built- in coastal cities near Santiago. Not that they're not worth a visit... but a little further north, there are truly stunning, beach towns which remain undiscovered for the most part... we found the most beautiful beaches, sea-side restaurants, and incredibly nice people. Below are some photos of Zapallar & Cachagua. I'll be posting more photos from Chile soon! Torres del Paine, Atacama desert and Easter Island.

Garzon (ghost town in UY) + La Pedrera





























































































































While in Punta we drove for about 40 minutes to Pueblo Garzón - a small town close to José Ignacio, and to La Pedrera, a little further. Garzon is a gorgeous village worth discovering... maybe just because there is nothing there, and the tranquility and silence one experiences upon arrival, is almost absurd... just a few, small houses, a plaza, dirt roads, and a posada /restaurant operated by one of South America's leading chef's, Francis Mallmann.

Ralph Lauren in Argentina & Punta del Este









































I recently spent some time with Ralph Lauren and his family here in Argentina and in Uruguay. It was wonderful to meet them and I feel so much gratitude for the little time we spent talking and walking through the neighborhoods of Buenos Aires and around Punta. It was an unforgettable learning experience. Learn from the best.
