Woohoo! The trip is coming up so fast! Yesterday I finished my last three finals, and I feel like a free woman now. Right now I am working on packing up my apartment since I'll have to be all moved out before I leave for Chile.
On to more exciting news - I got some information about the family that I will be staying with! Their last name is Otarola Arce. My señora and señor are both in their fifties, and they have two daughters - one is 29, and the other is 16. It sounds like I might end up with my own room, which would be fabulous! They live in a part of Santiago called Las Condes, which is apparently a very nice part of town that is considered to be the financial district. I even found the street that I will live on (Luz - which means "light") on a map in a library book. It's right next to the U.S. Embassy, according to the map.
When I look at pictures of Santiago, it kind of reminds me of Denver because it is right next to a mountain range. I love mountains! If I had to choose between going to the beach, and going to the mountains, I would definately choose mountains. They just take my breath away!

Hey Alli!
If I don't see you before you take off, have a great trip! And if you need help with wedding stuff when I get back, you know who to call!
