¡Estoy Aqui!

¡Hola!

After a traveling a great distance I finally arrived in Valdivia, Chile, which happens to be a very beautiful place. I live on an island called Isla Teja with a host family. I arrived early in the morning and my family was not expecting me until later that day, so I felt badly about my miscommunication. It all worked out. We ate desayuno together and got to know one another. My family only speaks Español. Already I feel like I have learned a lot.

I live very close to campus, actual walking distance. I still have to investigate the campus before my classes start on Lunes (Monday). I still have to register for classes, then e-mail them to Central to make sure that they will transfer.

Yesterday, I went to Puerto Varas with Cristina, my host hermana. It was a three hour bus ride, but it was a beautiful ride. The landscape is muy bonito! In Puerto Varas there are volcanoes!!! I took some pictures and I will have to post them later. It was a really nice day trip. I am glad that I was able to go to a nearby city so early in the semester.

I will write more later with fotos!

Chao,
Sarah
