Goodbye Chile!

We’ve officially said goodbye to all of our friends in Chile… how sad! We crossed the border back to Santiago this Saturday, and are now back in Mendoza, our home for the next 5 months. Our plan is to do some apartment hunting for the next few days, and hopefully encounter something sooner rather than later; each day we don’t have a house, we have to pay the inflated Mendoza hostel tariff1.I will be posting photos soon so that you can check out our housing options, and once we find a house… you’ll be the first to know!
On a side note, I’ve recently started picking chess up again; I joined the internet chess club and have been playing a few games per day2! It’s pretty exciting, and if anyone out there wants to play a game, keep an eye out for sAlexander.
1 Prices here in Mendoza have skyrocketed! Last year we paid $25 pesos (about USD$8) per night; this year, at the same location, we’re paying $70 pesos!
2 I’ve played 20 games in the last week! Wow!
