Reciprocal Welcome

Ahh, Chile. I hope I like you because you've charged me and all other Canadian visitors, $132.00 (US I might add) to enter your beautiful country. Alas, it is not just Canadians who have to pay the reciprocity tax. It is also charged to our NAFTA family and Australia but it is Canadians who pay the most.

This was the most shocking revelation of the trip thus far and in keeping with my mad existence mentality, I only learned of this charge a couple of days ago. It registered but I brushed it off, hoping that the charge would magically disappear.

Anyways, more to come from smoggy Santiago.
