this is my life.
waking up, wherever i am, figuring out what time i have to check out of the hostel or catch a bus or meet with someone. throwing things in a locker or grabbing all my life pocessions that i carry in a backpack. meeting with the other two of our triumphant trio (amanda and shawn) and dishing out stories of each others´ nights ventures. eating junkie italianos or giant ice cream cones. walking around. museums. malls. parks. more food probably. sleeping in a park laughing about a million inside jokes that have been born in a week´s time.
yesterday, while at a giant shopping mall, amanda and i saw a ticket counter for cross continental bus tickets. we ran over and bought tickets for mendoza, argentina on monday. just like that. no plans beyond 3 or 4 days. spur of the moment decisions. life is good.
not having plans does have a downside. i get back to my hostel, say, at maybe 11 in the morning... after not being there for 24 hours. don´t ask. and the front desk guy demands that i pay up or he wont give me my key. and then of course i hate bailing out of people. i was supposed to go to pichilemu today. and then i wasnt able to check out of my hostel in time. because of not-aforementioned funny events. and it was too late in the day to get a bus. so i jotted a quick email, but still feel bad. ahh i hate letting people down. gah.
tonight: dinner with pancho, drinks with the trio (plus a swedish girl, a pair of identical twin british boys and a funny large black brazilian guy who speaks neither spanish nor english), and quien sabe? who knows, we´ll see!
bravissimo: tana, i tried it. its amazing! basically, only the best ice cream place in chile. not just chocolate and vanilla, but everything from pineapple to aloe vera flavors. seriously good!
pichilemu: a little beach town south of santiago. supposedly the surfing capital of chile. but, i am not sure. i never made it. :(
mendoza: the napa valley of argentina! amanda and i are set to go on monday. i want to take a wine tour, she wants to meet up with her french man haha
