Hola a todos!
I have finally arrived here in Chile. I am currently in Santiago and loving it. I have met some really cool people so far. I am in a hotel right now with two guys. One is from Santa Cruz who is 26 and makes wine. The other is a colorado Univeristy history graduate who is 21. They are both cool guys who know a lot of spanish so it helps a lot with my learning. We have only had a small orientation so far but have a grasp on what to expect. We will spend the next 5 days here in Santiago then split off into 2 groups. One group will go to the region of Coquimbo and the other will venture off to O'higgins region. I will be going to coquimbo with The guy from Santa cruz, danny and three others who are really nice too. Our coordinator tells us that we will all be at different schools in our region but most likely only a bike ride away from each other so that means we will get to spend a lot of time together outside of the classroom. I asked about free time though and she said there is a lot of out of classroom work but she said we will still get tons of freetime and time to spend with our host families. We went out to dinner tonight as a group. It was really good, we had steak and this spicy mashed potatoes. You will all have to forgive me with the names. I am going to start remembering the names so I can list them here, but I always forget. Anyway I love it so far we have met a lot of cool people and we are all enjoying it a lot right now. Keep in touch for more. I will try and update this more often, but often times when we get wireless it is either slow or needs a password. ciao, y un beso
