i will always be a coffee addict at heart (jueves, 2 septiembre)

Today was a super busy day. We sang and played at a Methodist school for special (mentally retarded) students on the southern side of Santiago at 10am. There wasn´t much space on the stage and the jazz band was really crammed in there. I played tenor and alto sax today, and improvised on the new...

¿que quiere decir para siempre? (sabado, 31 julio)

This morning I slept in till noon and awoke with the bright Santiaguine sunlight shining into my room. At first I was annoyed with myself for sleeping in so late while I could have been doing other things and seeing more of the city. Then I reminded myself that I´d been waking up annoyingly...

hoy es hoy / y ayer se fue / no hay dudas (viernes, 30 julio)

Finally the last day of orientation has ended. It´s not that I didn´t enjoy it or meet a lot of interesting people, but it was a long week and parts of orientation weren´t that exciting. Some of it was though, like the `Never Have I Ever`game. Let´s just say that I was standing up a lot:) During...

there is so much in this world to love and to write about (jueves, 29 julio)

Today orientation was long, as usual. I stopped at Natural Greens to get fresh juice before orientation began. Today they told us about our trip arrangements. Everyone in the group was laughing because some of the people have to get up at 6am on Monday to depart from Santiago. I was laughing,...

miercoles, 28 julio

Today I had issues with waking up this morning, but at 8:15 finally got out of bed. I was glad I showered last night so all I had to do was get dressed and head to the hotel board room for orientation. I stopped at this place called Natural Greens and got some fresh kiwi juice on the way. It was...

permanent markers and white boards don´t end well (martes, 27 junio)

Today was a little bit hard to pay attention during orientation since a lot of it was a repeat of what I´d learned during the TEFL course. To me, not much is worse than getting stuck sitting in a chair all day listening to people talk. Because of this, during the lesson planning part of the...

the beauty of some things cannot be put into words, but nonetheless I will try to do so anyway (lunes 26 julio).

There is so much going through my mind right now. I absolutely love this city. Its horizons of mountains with their snow covered peaks, the sandy cordilleras afar, and the lingering fog have taken me in, captivated me in a place that feels more like a suspension in time and space. It´s like...

You mean you didn't know?

I just wanted to add an interesting observation. Carpaccio: Thinly slice poultry usually eaten with olive oil, lime, salt, and other condiments. It is usually an appetizer and a good source of protein. I always thought that is was a globally eaten food. But my fellow fellows have asked me...

Amigas Nueva

Day 5

Dear Blogabond, So much has gone on since I last reported. We have been extremely busy getting further acquainted with the Chilean lifestyle and Friday may have been the most important day as far as the Chilean way of life goes. Our group started out the day with a long bus ride allowed many...
