Finally Acclimated to Chile

I am finally totally acclimated to Chile. I am comfortable to work and meet and speak in Spanish all day long. I’m getting along great with my colleagues in the office and we understand each other perfectly. I know how to get around the city, the quirks, how to solve and avoid problems. I’m finally totally acclimated.

We leave in two days. It has been an amazing time, and I don´t have the words...except I guess with this blog I do....

Colo Colo vs La U

Colo Colo is the biggest local team in Chilean soccer, sort of like the Yankees in the US. Zander likes them. The second biggest is University de Chile, and Jacob likes them. Of course, we don’t really know much about them—we just like them for their colors/symbols/cause it’s the thing to do in Chile.

I got the kids shirts today. The kids play a lot of soccer out in the plaza of our apartment, and now they can play out the famous Chile rivalry.
