The last stop on our trip was in Santiago, Chile! It was a very well kept city; parks everywhere and relatively clean streets compared to BA and MVD. When we first arrived, of course we got settled in our hostel, then went out to explore the barrio. There are lots of places to shop nearby and for dinner we had more Mexican food. This was a lot better than the first time but more expensive at the same time. Once we were back at the hostel, we watched The Motorcycle Diaries. It was the story of young Che Guevara and I really enjoyed it. One of the books we've read for INTS, which I also enjoyed, mentioned him so it was cool to hear a little more history and make connections.
Our last full day in Chile (Friday) was spent shopping in the artisan market, taking pictures in the park and riding the tram to the top of San Lucia. 6 out of 8 bought panchos made of Alpaca :D We found a KFC for lunch and for dinner I went to a cafe with Taylor and Linley. The next morning was an early one because our bus to MVD left at 8:30 am. It was a 27 hour bus ride! Not as bad as I was expecting, but still WAY too long to be on a bus.
I absolutely loved Chile and would go back someday if I had the chance! God most definitely made himself known and I cannot help but to praise Him. Thanks for thinking of me while I'm gone. Only 4 more weeks...much love <3
