@leonp Ah, not bad! I visited Chile as well, on the same trip that took me to Argentina and Uruguay. The east/west definitely vary a lot depending on where in the world you start from.

@jayeless Chiloé was incredibly boring, disappointingly enough. Ushuaia was great, though – climbed a glacier and saw the seals.

Ask where's the North? at York, 'tis on the Tweed; In Scotland, at the Orcades; and there, At Greenland, Zembla, or the Lord knows where:

@leonp I didn't climb any glaciers while I was there (that's pretty cool though 😃), but I did think Ushuaia was beautiful! One of the most charming places I've been.

Here I don't think we even really talk about "the North" – closest'd be "north of the divide", which just means north of this dinky little mountain range that, for the portion where the highway runs through it north of Melbourne, is basically just a chain of hills 😆 (Further east it at least grows into moderate mountains.)

@jayeless well, when I say climb, I mean “walk up”. Yes it was a beautiful place.

Edinburgh doesn’t seem very far north from here, but I guess I’d hit Scandinavia if I went much further (which would be cool).
