Hey all!
Sorry I didn't write earlier but it's been super hectic here. I arrived in Chile yesterday and, despite the country's insistence on being laid back, have been running around since. Let me be the first to say that this place is BEAUTIFUL. The Andes are, of course, the best part. Well, so far. I have yet to get to the city where I'll be staying (Coquimbo, for all of you who were wondering), so I have to hedge a little.
We've (by we I mean the 10 other teachers in this CIEE program and I) have been wandering around Santiago with our awesome guide Claudia since yesterday. I honestly prefer the metro (which is SUPER simple) to any of the buses (they're scary). She's been treating us to really great food (Peruvian, cool jazz club food, and tonight: vegetarian) and telling us everything we need to know/answering all of our questions (which is most important). :)
I think that'll be all for today. I'll try to update as frequently as possible but I'm not sure how accessible the internet will be once we move to the new hostel/our homes. :)
Loves to you all! :)

So glad to hear you arrived safely and what you're doing. Sounds exciting. I do hope you have access to internet because it's comforting to read about it here.
