Hi,

My husband and I are moving to Chile in November. His office is located in Vina and mine in Santiago. I have been wondering if it is it possible to commute daily from Vina to Santiago?

I have read that bus services are good and frequent and it's only a 1.5 hrs drive. Do people generally do this or would this be a futile exercise leaving me totally exhausted?

Any help in this regard will be deeply appreciated!!

Many thanks in advance.

Cheers
