Normal life

This weekend Macie came over to my house to spend the night! Saturday we hung out with my host brother Tomas and my friend Agustin and made pizzas and played carioca (a Chilean card game)

Sunday we hung out, skyped with my host brother in Germany, tried to watch Mean Girls, went to Santiago and walked around a park then went shopping, and finally ate at McDonalds. And a random lady in McDonalds walked up to us and asked "Do you guys want these french fries? My son doesn't want them..." so we got a free thing of giant fries from McDonalds, being a gringa here rocks.


Overall my life here is getting more normal, which is nice. School, hanging out with friends, parties, eating more pan than I previously though was humanly possible...I've also started running with my friend Emily (another exchange student in my school from the US) to get in shape for upcoming trip. In a month we're going to Torres de Paine, in Patagonia (the way far south of Chile) for a week with our exchange program. We're trekking/backpacking everything, 8 hours of walking every day. And considering we do absolutely nothing right now we're attempting to get back in shape.

Much love from Chile!
