Last Days in Santiago

Sorry I haven’t written in awhile, been so busy finishing up training. So my last couple days in Chile have been amazing. We met some Chilean guys in town and we have been hanging out with them a lot. Chilean people are the truth, so kind and generous. We all enjoyed each other’s company, and in a short week became good friends. They really showed us what Santiago was all about. Took us out to eat, drink, to parks ECT… One of my favorite nights was when we went to dance with the locals. They took us to the coolest bar where live music was playing. The bar was on a random calle, you would have never guessed there was anything there. We arrived at the big wooden door, knocked twice, and then entered. Inside was a 7 person Quimbo band. If you have never heard of the music quimbo, it s a typical music of Chile that I thoroughly enjoyed I danced my ass off, it rocked!


Thursday was a very important de in Chile for protest. On this day students stormed the street demonstrating their frustrations with education. Here it can be a little dangerous to maneuver through downtown because it can often be dangerous because they are not always civil.
