On the occasion of the National Day of the Republic of Chile, the Ambassador of Chile H.E. Ms. María Teresa de Jesus Infante organized a reception to celebrate her county’s 208th anniversary.
The celebrations took place on 20 September 2019.
Many of ambassador MaríaTeresa Infante’ colleagues, members of the business community, the army, government persons, as well as friends of Chile, came to congratulate her.
The guests were cordially invited to part take of the drinks, food and the music performed by a Chilean band.
There was Chilean wine for wine lovers and also the mouth-watering Empanadas. Empanadas are very much associated with the Fiestas Patrias. Ambassador Infante took to the floor and gave a dance performance of the Cueca. Many followed her example.
20 September 2019 has been a fantastic Chilean day celebration at Ambassador MaríaTeresa Infante’ residence in Wassenaar.
