I´m in Santiago, Chile


So I am now in Santiago. Here is a picture of me leaving Nashville.




And here I am in my hostel.  The picture was taken by my new Turkish friend who I think already thinks we are best friends and has invited me to his mansion in Turkey.



I have been just wondering around Santiago, which is a huge city and there are so many people, and I definitely am the tallest person there. The place I´ve been reading in is called the Plazas Del Armas, and it is a huge town square with lots of artists, fountains, trees, chess players, and ice cream. Here is a picture of the Plazas Del Armas with some of the artists.



I also like the Mercada Central, which is like a huge farmers market. I accidently bought a huge bag of bananas which I felt silly carrying around with me the rest of the day.



Yesterday, I hiked a huge hill overlooking Chile, and here is the picture.


I really like Santiago, so I´m going to stay here until Wednesay, and then I will head over to the coast, to Valparaiso and Vine Del Mar.
