So I haven't managed to update lately...

It has been hard to get myself to update the blog lately, I have been super busy going between the mine, Santiago, my new internship at the Santiago Times, social life, friends, girlfriend, celebrating diezyocho, Chile's independence day.

This last weekend I went to Talca to celebrate the national holiday with some of Carolina's friends. It is starting to look like springtime, which is really nice after a succession of rainy cold weekends in Santiago. We drank lots of wine and chicha, a national drink that tastes like cider that spent a little too much time sitting the fridge. Chica is a little better, has some sugar added and all.

The weekend before that I went to the coast, laid on the beach and ate some sea food. I have several pictures from both weekends and will post them when I get back to Santiago. For now I wait for students to arrive, it is a beautiful day up here at the mine, blue sky, nice and warm. Tomarrow is the first day of spring, and I am more than ready to start some outdoor activities. Some hiking in the Andes this weekend if all goes well.
