Deciding not to endure the Seattle winter this year, I've gone to the southern hemisphere for six months. First a month of travel in Bolivia and north and central Chile, then on to southern Chile for my internship with the Chol Chol Foundation in Temuco. Fundacion Chol Chol is a fair trade organization that promotes the artisan work of Mapuche weavers.

epic bus ride
We told ourselves we weren´t going to take any night buses since there are always these horror stories about night buses. But San Pedro was so expensive, we wanted to get as far south as possible so we could eat more empanadas for less. So after the 5 hour ride to Antofagasta, we took the night bus (12 hours) to La Serena. The time flew surprisingly quickly. It was beautiful chasing the sunset and watching the colors change over the desert.
