Almost half of Chileans live in this capital city, and why wouldn’t they with gorgeous views looking up to ginormous snow-capped peaks and dynamic cultural interactions and scenery all across the city. Santiago is the business capital of Chile. Thus, you find a gap year program in Chile working for a tech startup, doing marketing and communication tasks for a company, or diving into project management. Medicine is another popular field in Santiago. It would be a prime place to intern in a hospital or support an NGO while picking up a second language (if you haven’t already).
Easter Island. If you’re comfortable with, and even craving remoteness for your gap year in Chile, look no further than Easter Island off of Chile’s coast. This remote volcanic island is known for its archeological sites. Heads up, it might be challenging finding a gap year program here, but when you can, it will probably in the fields of anthropology, environmental science, or eco-tourism.
Valparaiso. Take a look all around you and you will see colorful block-shaped dwelling stacked along the hillsides forming brightly inviting mosaics. The ocean stretches all along the western side of the town as ships come and go to this popular port town. A gap year in Chile in this town can lead you to a managerial internship position for one of the trading companies, an internship with a top hotel, or working with a tourism company.
