Senorita, que paso! Digame!

We made our travel plans for February on Thursday...very productive day.

Cynthia and I had our presentation in class...it went pretty well. Afterwords we had lunch and went back to hang out at my house for a little. I met with Isabel (the International Student Liaison) about my classes. I need to get one approved by SJU...but right now it looks like I will be taking three courses. Tue, Wed, Thur...four day weekends! It will still count as a full courseload for me back at SJU. The course I took this month counts as one, and my course on Thursday counts as two because there is weekly community service and a written component I send back to SJU (totals to 5 courses). It is a pretty good situation.

After I met with Isabel, I made myself a dinner of rice and eggs and went over to Christian's house to discuss our travel plans. Here is our horario:

Tuesday Feb 2nd-Feb 9th
San Pedro de Atacama: Northern Chile, beautiful desert and views of the mountains

Thurday Feb 11th-Feb 18th
Montevideo, Uruguay: Christian has friends there and aparently the beaches are absolutely amazing

Febx-March/Febx:
Southern Chile: We don't have exact dates for this yet but we are making the plans tonight.

I am very very excited for the opportunity to do this kind of stuff and I can't wait to start the adventure. We are taking a 20 hour bus ride to the north on Tuesday, then coming back down to Santiago, then leaving on a plane to Uruguay. We will fly back to Santiago, then most likely fly down to Southern Chile and work our way back up through the cities in a bus. I will fill you in on any new details...the blog entries will inevitably become more scarce but I'll try my best!
