Feelin' Better

I just spent the entire day in bed with a fever. But no worries, my host family has been taking great care of me, especially Nely, who has been bringing me tea and ibuprofen and cookies and soup! Yay :) Anyways, my host mom wanted me to switch rooms, so I've moved upstairs to a warmer room. I swear, this place is like a 5-star hotel and world-class hospital all in one. I've just gotta keep taking Advil for the sore throat and I should be fine in no time.

So last night our class went to Santiago, the capital, for a film premier at the Palacio de la Moneda, which is the Chilean equivalent of the White House. It was pretty incredible. I am very excited to return to Santiago and spend a weekend exploring! It's such a beatiful city. Very European, with enchanting narrow side streets and busy thoroughfares.

Well, I'll have more to tell later. Over and out!
