I just finished up the closing ceremonies for my program, English Opens Doors, and am now sitting in my hostal recharging all my electronics. The last six months feel like nothing, insanely fast. We got diplomas and stuff, and ganna have a cocktail hour later. It was a good ceremony and nice to catch up with people who I haven't seen since the first days. But the shiz iz donz.
Last night went out with all the gringos for thanksgiving to a awesome gringo bar called California Cantina. I think we stayed there for like 8 hours eating and drinking and watching football. It was funny we were on our way out mid afternoon and walk through the bar and. See the saints playing dallas, and just so happens the two friend I was with, one is a dallas fan (from texas) and one is a saints fan (from New Orleans). So of course we ended up staying and getting a bit many more pitchers. We ended up meeting the owner's mom of the restaurant. And she told us all about how they started the restaurant and how much they love it. Two friends from california came down 6 years ago and started it up. We ended up meeting both the owners as well and they only strengthened my desire for wanting to own a restaurant/bar (sounds like fate ma????). Well had a great time there and met lots of other very nice gringos, lota english being thrown around. It'll be sad to say goodbye to all the cool people I met on this trip but I definitely am planning to see them again in the future.
As for my next adventure like I said I can't wait. If you still haven't looked up where I am going to be working you really should it is beautiful, Estancia Ranquilco, google it. Tonight I will be taking a bus from Santiago to Temuco which is in the south of Chile. Then tomorrow morning another bus from Temuco to Las Lajas, Argentina. Then another bus from Lajas to a small pueblo where from then I have to meet this lady who will take me to the ranch. There are no roads that lead into the ranch so you have to travel by horseback to get in and out. Like I said a very different experience. But that's what I want, I've always wanted to see what that kind of lifestyle is like. I will be working there for the next three months, and am going to have limited access to the internet so excuse my lack of blogging for you followers. This may be the last blog for awhile sorry peeps.
I just want to say a late happy thanksgiving to my family and friends, thanks for all the great emails and texts and stuff miss you all a lot. I am thankful for all the cariño I have in my life from friends and family.
Love,
Franke
