Sigh of Relief

Right now I am sitting in the top bunk of my bunkbed in the YWAM DTS base in Pichilemu, Chile. There are currently four blankets stacked up on my bed because I kid you not it is THAT cold! 

I met some amazing people today, and I'm rooming with 4 of them. My roommates- or should I say bunkmates- are Caterina, Maria, Arabella, and Magdalena! They call me Winny :) I find it endearing that that is the closest they can reach to pronouncing Whitney the right way! Except for my new friend Javier who, upon hearing my "nombre" exclaimed - like Whitney Houston! That got tons of laughs from the other spanish speaking spectators...I can't even escape that association when I leave the country the woman sings in! Thanks mom!

I already feel as if I know more Spanish :) Praise!

Tomorrow is the last day of free time-tiempo libre- I get before the DTS officially starts and from that fateful day on for the next 3 months I will have UNA HORA- ONE HOUR a day of using the internet. So tomorrow is my day to: by an adapter for everything and anything electronic I have, find anywhere to sell me some Diet Coke and chocolate, change my dollars to Pesos, buy a winter coat and gloves, and thats about it :) 

Buenas Noches amigos
