Most tourists don’t come to Chile to do a tour of the big cities. They start in San Pedro de Atacama way up north, in the driest desert in the world, and then quickly pass through middle Chile before heading deep into the Lakes District where volcanoes, hot springs, forests, and of course, lakes, await them. A brief stopover in Santiago, a safe and modern metropolis lacking in any sort of charm or personality, may turn them off from visiting one of the most interesting cities in South America less than ninety minutes away, Valparaiso.

In the smorgasbord of Northern European nations that makes up Scandinavia, Sweden has always been known as the “big sister”. Its capital, Stockholm, has been the living-city proof of this.

Now I beg to add another one.
Welcome to Oslo, Norway, the cocky little brother that has all of a sudden grown up. Action wise, I’d say it is the best you can do in Scandinavia right now.
