Just trying to get in the habit of posting everyday or as frequently as possible. This blog should be a great thing to come back and read in a year or 2, or 5, or 10, when I have a boring desk job and need to waste time on the internet and Facebook is blocked, still. Hopefully I wont be on Facebook that much then.
ANYWHO:
So after my disjointed, sleep-deprived post, I went to Bellavista, a neighborhood in Santiago known for it's Happy Hour and after-hours scenes. A group of us gringos just hung out there in the afternoon, and it was a nice place to walk around. As Americans, we stick out. Every place we passed sent whoever could speak English to try to get us to sit down and have a drink.
Sundays are slow here in Santiago. Nothing much really happens around the city on Sundays. It's a little eerie.
Life inside the home is still good. I'm watching Entourage with Spanish subtitles with my younger host brother, Pierre. It's fun because I've never had a brother, and now whenever we're home with nothing to do, we watch an episode or two of Entourage.
This morning I had an interview with a microfinance organization in Chile. It's located in a not-so-nice part of Santiago, but it sounds like I can be a lot of help to them this semester. I have another interview tomorrow, so we'll see which organization I pick in the end.
Till next time,
Dan
