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.

sunny christmas
What a strange feeling to have Christmas in the summer! I also turn 34 today. Extra weird. So far it's been a lazy day of sleeping in, strolling downtown (the streets were finally peaceful after the Christmas frenzy this past week), trying chirimoya ice cream, taking more photos of cats, and watching random bits of American movies in the hostel living room. I'm happy to have an internet connection today to be able to Skype with my family and to receive all the sweet birthday wishes from friends on facebook all over the world.
