Sharing our bustling youth hostel with our fellow trainee teachers in what feels like a University American sitcom...high fives at breakfast, Apple macs for lunch and chat about soccer and thrift stores at dinner. It's totally AWESOME. Ahem.
Working long days in a v. Studious district next door to pinochet's torture quarter, which isn't a far cry from our teacher training. Apart from being schooled on the art of not getting ourselves pregnant, we have learnt lots of useful tips on how to deal with a bunch of 25 mischievous Chileans, which culminated today in us conducting our own mock class...although this scared us both silly, we now feel somewhat prepared for the onslaught. Nonetheless, we took ourselves off after class to recover with a large glass of vino and the best most delicious ice cream I have EVER tasted (and I've tasted A LOT!)
The weekend will bring new adventures as we head off to our new families in Ovalle, in the small north. The town is famous for producing Pisco so we are never too far from a post school high! Ciao ciao for now x
