Is Valparaiso especially dry? I'm curious why so many houses have corrugated sheet metal roofs.

dry, and the corregated "products" (some may be transite/asbestos!) are cheap. the buildings may have been wood siding and perhaps tile roofs originally. the european style buildings covered in corregated product are interesting.
i'm loving this! i'd love to go from here up the altiplano
