Chilean streets marked by cannabis odor, says US influencer

American content creator Andrea Pascale has gone viral after sharing her observations regarding the prevalence of marijuana odors in Chile. While traveling through the country, including in the southern region of Pucón, Pascale noted that the scent of cannabis is a predominant smell in the streets.

Pascale, who has Chilean ancestry, remarked that the odor is more noticeable in Chile than in the United States city where she grew up, despite cannabis being legal in her home city. She noted that an Italian friend visiting the country also observed the same phenomenon shortly after arrival. The influencer highlighted that this experience is not limited to the capital, Santiago, but extends to other parts of the country.
