Starbucks

I'm sure no one is surprised that I looked up the Starbucks locations in Chile.  This one is just 1 km away from where I'll be living!  If I'm feeling homesick, you know where I'll be!

12 Days!

So, some logistics for my trip: I leave on May 29 and return on July 20.  My flight will go from D.C. to Dallas/Fort Worth, and from there I'll be flying straight to Santiago!  My address will be:

Hernando de Aguirre 353 APPT. 32
7510067 Providencia
Chile

I just received info about my family - I will be living with a married couple with two sons who are 3 and 8 years old!

Today I began giving myself a crash review course on Spanish.  That's probably what I'm most nervous about--whether or not I can communicate somewhat coherently.  I guess I'll find out soon!
