Venezuela is not safe for a tourist to visit.

But there are plenty of other beautiful, safe places to visit in South America. I live in Argentina and would recommend a visit!

Chile, Bolivia, Colombia, Peru, southern Brazil and Uruguay are also all perfectly safe to visit - and you should!

You shouldn't speak about things you don't know. We don't have weirdest viruses. We only have Zika now and that could happen to any country. The problem is that a lot of Latin countries doesn't have a good healthcare system, so things get worse here if you compare to Europe or US.

Let's make this clear.

We're going through the worst situation we've ever been through, but come on, we're not killing for food (yet), and we really hope we don't get to that point. BUT in this country, as of now, if you want to eat, you have to make very long lines to buy food, in case you find it. Believe me, very long lines. And that's a torture for people, a few people have even died while waiting to buy food. See it here, so the situation is not good at all in this country.

We have the biggest inflation of the entire world and the trash government only keeps making it worse each time with their stupid decisions.

Most of the rest of South America is doing good. Some of them ha've reached their peaks yet last year, and I'm happy for them.
