Miscelaneus


I havent had the chance to travel around the country lately. But it doesnt mean Ive being not having fun. Lets take a look of what have been up in my life in the last two months and a half...
San Antonio/ Santo Domingo/ Llo Lleo
Lily, Claire, Jimena, Juani and me joined Ruben in a Tour Marquard to the beach!. Again, looking for some suntan, I was not lucky at all. I still dont get it why the sun is never shining when I go to the beach. Anyway, after a visit to the exclusive neighborhood of Santo Domingo next to the beach, we went back to San Antonio, the second important harbord in Chile. What I enjoyed the most was getting to know how people from the town use to spend a sunday in the afternoon, to try Congrio (another typical fish you will always find in the menu) and see how this fish, together with jaiba, and a seadog look like in real life....just in case, the seadog was not in the menu!
Johanna´s B-day!
My friend and ex roommate Johanna celebrated her b-day on March,21th. We went to a french restaurant (La Boheme) near our house (La Comboyana) in Bellavista, and had some typical french food. No, Johanna is not french, she is german, as well as most of the guys in the picture: Peter and Felix (current habitants of La Camboyana) and Andrea. And Mario, my other ex roommate, hes from Chile. Im not living in La Comboyana anymore, but I had good memories from there and from the frienships I made. I miss you guys!!!
Swinming Pool at Erika´s
If there is a great host: thats Erika!...always so sweet!...she invited me and the girl gang to her swinming pool. I met Choko, her Shiba dog!...we had a very good time sharing stories and looking at pictures from past AIESEC parties!. I met Erika four years ago in an AIESEC International Congress IC in Calgary, Canada. She was representing AIESE in Chile and me representing AIESEC in Peru.
Samba Night!
If you cant go to the Carnival, let the carnival come to you!!!...looking for a place to celebrate the Brazilian Carnival, we went to this place: Esquina Do Samba. Hey, if your not from Brazil and you ever thought you know how to dance samba, you better see those brazilian girls dancing...damn it!!!!...how do they make it?????
Bowling Night!!!
Due to the AIESEC Regional Conference, Lily was going to Colombia for the next three weeks. So we went bowling in order to spend some time together before she left. I had a great time, but to be honest: bowling is definitely not for me...I suck!!!!...which doesnt mean I wouldnt try it again!
Santiago City Tour
Lily, Ruben, Claire and I went on a city tour aound Santiago downtown. We started from the main square, visiting the cathedral. We continued with a yummy lunch in the central market, where we ate some typical food: pastel de jaiba, reineta with salsa margarita (thats what I had), and fried merzula...and of course, the very wellknown "pebre" with bread. We ended the day by visiting La Moneda and its museum.
