En la playa de San Antonio



This past weekend nate and I traveled to our host family`s beach house, which was once owned by their uncle who, according to Nate, was once an advisor to the man himslef -Pinochet. In our travel we stopped at a ¨typical pit¨ ro eat. The common food here is a beef sanwhich with cheese, they serve it to you while wearing winter parkas and scarfs because no one has heat in their stores or even houses. Locals take a mediterenean approach to life, meaning they have no use for central heating.

One thing I have noticed is the many stray dogs on the street, who will follow you around and look sad. We saw one dog with three legs hopping around and another, well not so well off (see pic).
