We're here!

I am writing this blog from Santiago, Chile in the home of Javier and Ximena Cuevas. It is a beautiful and warm day in the city. We arrived around 8am this morning and were pleasantly surprised to find out that we're in the same time zone as home. No jet lag definitely makes the trip much easier!

Today I am spending the day with Javier and Ximena. I have my own room and bathroom and already feel so much at home. They have been wonderful to me so far and I am really loving speaking in Spanish again! We are planning to have lunch, then a siesta (yay!) and then possibly go shopping or explore the city a little bit. The rest of our team is spending the day with their families. We will get together again tomorrow!
Hasta luego!
