Tales from Northern Patagonia – Welcome to Local Heart
If you’ve ever wondered what it feels like to live on the edge of the world, pour yourself a cuppa, settle in, and step into Local Heart.
Here, snow-capped volcanoes pierce the sky above deep, glacial lakes, and life moves to the timeless rhythms of nature’s extremes. In this wild corner of southern Chile, small towns cling to the land at the edge of the continent, shaped by relentless rain and enduring traditions.
Among these stories, you’ll find local flavours, hidden trails, resilient communities — and a glimpse into what it truly means to call this remote and beautiful land home.
Nestled by the shores of Lago Llanquihue, Local Heart invites you to experience the untamed beauty of Northern Patagonia: raw, breathtaking, and alive with everyday magic.
Come and explore with me. There’s a whole new world waiting here.
As for Me
I’m a big-city girl turned small-town mum, sharing the lessons and surprises of life in Patagonia — everything that fascinates me and continues to shape my journey.
When I’m not writing or posting, I teach English, navigate the world of digital journalism, translation, and storytelling, and find joy in the little things — walking in the rain, chatting with my children, people-watching — and, of course, coffee!
