I think more people get caught off-guard by the fact that Chile is in the opposite season of the US.
Gene Wolfe's Book of the New Sun was full of many exotic things, but the fact that temperatures were hotter when the characters went north was still reliably weird for me.
Those people must not like pomegranates nearly as much as I do. I spend several months of each year appreciating that Chile is in the opposite season.
