Happy One Month Anniversary!

Today is my one month anniversary of being in Chile! Woohoo!

I celebrated this week by working on paperwork for school and being more proactive in contacting Rotary clubs. People are coming back from their summer vacation and so I am finding contacting people are easier to contact.

I found out I needed one more stamp from an official in Santiago and so I took my six hour trip to the capital. At first, I was having a little bit of a sour attitude about having to travel all that way. But then I remembered the old phrase, "When life gives you scurvy...make lemonade!" So, I decided to travel around the city for the day and explore. I got the stamp first thing in the morning and then I had a lovely time being in Santiago.

I miss you all and send you all my love!

I was not allowed to take photos inside but the interior was amazing. I fell in love with Neruda all over again.
