you don't really get cold if you're by the sea, norway actually has fair temperatures. see its the mountains and steppe in russia and southeast europe that get the coldest

nobody permanently lives in antarctica yet because theres an anti-settlement agreement that ends in 10 years or something. unless the ice all melts away into a lake of oil then it won't be interesting for a long time

I've been to Ushuaia and it's cold but it's not Russia tier.

Chilean patagonia is like central europe tier desu

Still want to see someone post on Sup Forums from Antarctica or the Falklands.

Yes.

Some argie user actually did post from Antarctica. He posted a timestamp too.

>what happens here?
Meh tier cities with beautiful nature.

>is red area as cold as norway, or close to it?
Close, i find more similar to Alaska.

>are there people living in green area?
Yep, a bunch of internationals bases.

red area is a little less cold than norway and it's also a lot more dry, so there isn't as much snow, there are still lots of icebergs though.
there are some bases in the green area but not any civilian settlements (civilians are allowed in though).

Here one in the green zone.

Do you think theres a demand for English teachers there? I'd love to live in Patagonia.

Do they have internet in those cities?

yep in most cities, the rest bad tough.

yes you could but wages for teachers are not too good

Yes but come with the work obtained from your country of origin, not to look for one here. search, there is programs for that

Yo viví en Trevelin, un pueblo de ése estilo muchos años, dicen que le ponen colores chillones a las casas para que no sea tan depresivo en verano.

Me hizo acordar eso la foto..

Happens a lot in Chile, also in Argentinian Tierra del Fuego, Santa Cruz and Chubut.

People just paint their houses with any color they feel like, you can see red, green, pink, lime, fucsia, blue etc. You can see entire blocks where every house has a different color.
Landscape is already depressing enough, plants and grass hardly grow, trees grow all crooked because of the +100 km/h winds all year long, there are like 3 sunny days per year only...so I guess that colorful neighborhoods cheer up people a little bit.

Sign me up senpai

Totally... Trevelin in summer was depressing as fuck.

No se podía ni jugar a la pelota, porque entre que se la llevaba el viento y que tenías que jugar con tres prendas encima se hacía muy triste... Encima en una cancha que era pura tierra de estepa.

People in punta arenas an hero like it's fun. Makes sense to paint everything in bright colors. Not that is working tho

yes; like, 50

i mean there is that one civilian base that you guys operate because muh clay, right? the one where you sent a pregnant woman so you could have a chilean born in antarctica?

>Still want to see someone post on Sup Forums from Antarctica
already happened, timestamp and everything

Why is the suicide rate so high?

How does Patagonia differ in terms of culture compared to Chile and Argentina?

seal clubbing but with natives instead

webecoist.momtastic.com/2011/02/15/born-freezing-meet-antarcticas-first-citizen/

a teenager from the falklands posted and I helped him with his math homework in exchange that he would write las malvinas son argentinas on the desk but he never delivered

Asi es el sur, es lindo ir unos dias de vacaciones pero vivir/crecer ahi es horrible. Para un adolescente es la muerte, encima tenes todo lejos, no te podes hacer una escapada de fin de semana porque la ciudad mas cercana esta a minimo 500 km.
Por suerte yo me entretenia mirando dibujitos chinos y posteando en Sup Forums asi que ni bola le daba a la depresion del mundo exterior.

Mostly the same, but with "Patagonian pride", hating centralism and Santiago, shit like that.

Also there is a bunch of croatians, german and british descendant there from marines who stay.

Nobody knows really. Mostly out of boredom IMO. Those remote places are nice and all but only when you visit. If you have to live there with permacold conditions, no sun, raging winds etc. it gets tough. Imagine never (ever in your life) been able to dress as you would like to because the weather would fuck you up.

Escuche que las minas de la patagonia son ingarchables y es raro encontrarte una linda, es verdad?

Much like Canada's north I suppose. Cold, dark, and isolated. We have very high suicide rates up there

Vivis en Punta Arenas? Yo creci en Rio Gallegos, siempre voy con mis viejos a Chile cuando queremos comprar ropa o electrodomesticos. Es muy linda tu ciudad.

Hay muy lindas, pero tenes que saber donde buscar. No es como Bs As o Rosario que donde vas tenes minitas 9/10, aca hay mucha rocha incojible en la calle.

Germans immigrants in southern chili...

Welsh and italians in southern argentina., their culture is strong here, I mean, things like eisteddfod, welsh teas, and stuff..

Also Argentina is more like a desert, and in winter it's colder and windy that's why we don't used to go outside...

I'm not from Pta Arenas but an ex was from there but living here in Santiago. We used to travel a lot there and it was great for me because I hike a lot and love fly fishing, but I got to know their reality and it's totally different having to endure that climate on a daily basis.

DELENDA EST PATAGONIA

Do they speak their native languages or did they switch to Spanish?

En el unico lugar de la patagonia donde vi (muchas) minas realmente lindas es en bariloche. El resto de la ciudades tiene un promedio de 6/10 EMO (en mi opinion).

Y hay pingüinos en las calles? Yo vivo en una ciudad costera y cada tanto se meten lobos marinos a las calles

They are muh heritage. They all speak spanish with their respective accents.

Valpo o Coquimbo?

Switch, two generations and what is left it's only traditions, that happen a lot here with Germans, British or Arabic people. My grandparents are mostly germans/swiss and what is left it's some good food and weird greetings in familiars meetings.

Dunno there but normally SA is not like Japan.

See in Japan english teachers know jack shit about japanese so they just make chinks talk in english and all that, if you understand good if not tough luck you should read more books with pointless knowledge.

Here in Uruguay at least that wouldn't work and since our teachers can actually speak english without problem unlike asian ones there's no point in bringing a foreigner if he can't speak spanish.

I assume it's the same for Argentina and Chile even if it's bumfuck argentina and chile

Coquimbo
Son la misma mierda la verdad

You just get used to it, like everything in life.
After some time you just end up grabbing coat by reflex before going out even though it's january and technically the peak of summer.

If money was actually invested in Patagonia to make the quality of life here more human-like and less depressing, it could be the coziest place on earth. Sadly Argentina is too centralized in Buenos Aires so nobody gives a fuck.

Tenes que ir a Chubut (interior de Chubut si podes), tenes muchas inglesas y galesas recesivas. Igual las minas mas lindas estan en el rio de la plata, no hay con que darle.

I'm also looking into teaching in Uruguay. By the time I go, my Spanish will be pretty good. Certainly not fluent, but able to get by. Is there a market for native English speakers to teach English in Uruguay?

No. Porque en coquimbo no se pasan a raja y la pesca es mucho mejor. Valparaiso es solo turismo hoy por hoy.

Hmm, highschool teachers get paid jack shit here dunno why you'd want to work as one.

And assuming you have your title and all that you'll be able to give class(maybe they'll make you pass some tests first though and see how you adapt, I'm no expert in education), but like I said our teachers can normally speak in english with no problem so I don't think there's a high priority for it.

You could always work for alianza though but you'll have to look into that, and it's US english so no aboot for you.

You've been told before. Try to get a contract in your country before you come around here. Maybe you could try your luck in eastern europe, southeast asia or china. Everywhere else is packed with english speakers.
