mosquito invasion, rentista visa, events, and more
everything you need to know
¡Bienvenidos!
Just a quick heads up: I’ll experiment with sending 2 times per week: once on Monday and the second time on Thursday.
That way I can include even more events (since many bars/events schedules are released on Wednesday).
That’s why I’m only including events until Thursday - there will be a 2nd email on Thursday morning with more events.
Let me know if you like that schedule by replying to this email!
Let’s dive in!
📰 News
The mosquito invasion: If you’ve been outside your apartment in the last few days, you’ve noticed swarms of mosquitos around the capital. Some of these are the normal variety - however, some carry dengue. They are expected to last a few more weeks (yay) so stock up on your repellant. Here’s a map of the most dengue-infested comunas in the city.
Another aviation strike: Aviation union announces a 24-hour strike this Wednesday. I’m not sure if this only affects Aerolinas flights or no, so you might want to check with your airline if you’re flying on Wednesday.
