Tonight I will be leaving on a bus to go to Diego de Almagro, my home for the next four months. It´s a smaller city (pop. 19,000) in the Atacama Region of Chile. The climate will be significantly different from Santiago. Temperatures will be warmer and there will be less vegetation, as it is a desert region. It will be nice to leave behind the smog of Santiago and head to a area that is known for its stargazing. The national park, Pan de Azucar, is only a couple hours away and has desert penguins. It sounds amazing.
Matt and I just figured out skype and were able to talk with webcams today. Technology is unbelievable!
