How much you want to spend? I can call some hotels to ask.

Anyway, if you come to Curico (200 km south of Santiago) you are invited to visit me. If you want to sleep here would be a plesure to offer you my home.

Phone (75) 327433

Thanks Jose, anywhere medium priced with secure moto parking would be fine, I expect to arrive Sat/Sun 1-2nd Jan and hope to take only a couple of days before I can carry on south with a serviced moto and mail. Mike Anderson

Grant, thank you, I modified my profile.

To sleep in Santiago:

-Marilu's Bed and Breakfast, US$30.00

-Tata´s Bed and Breakfast, US$24.00

The second one have a closed parking area, is a nice family house with garden and swiming pool, I think is better tha Marilu's.

Both have the same owners.

Happy New Year,

Today I founded on the highway close to Los Vilos an American biker riding a KLR-650 with the Horizont Unlimited t-shirt who asked me about this bed-and-breakfast, then I'm raising this post for him.

Friend, you are invited to visit me, send me an email, you have my address.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
