Things that I love about Chile: Cachai a slang verb that is parallel to the frase "you Know" in America and is used after almost every sentence, "Po" is an emphatic yes that is used to re-iterate "SI" or "NO," that you can park your car on the sidewalk like it is normal, espresso and chocolate after every meal, hanging out with a guy and not knowing that it was a date and then finding out from your friend that you had your first chilean dating experience, walking along the boardwalk in Vina del Mar and getting splashed by the waves because the surf is so huge, the chilean pronunciation of my name and all American labels, Pisco Sour, the techno clubs that play music from about five years ago, and the best part is how I get stared at every where I go without any shame or remorse......because apparently I am the only "Rubia" in Chile, hahahaha. The Culture here is great, I cannot believe how wonderful the lifestyle is down here. Viva Chile!
Life lives on through the written word, you never know who is reading :) Tienes que vivirlo!!

Sounds like you are having an amazing time. I'm so excited for you and admit slightly jealous now that my traveling days have come to and end (for now at least). Keep updating the blog and I will keep reading. Miss you!
