hello chile!

Chile is amazing.
I can´t explain why I love hearing a different language, like spanish, being spoken all the time. It makes me so happy. The different sayings, the spanish slang, its such a welcomed change.
So there´s the change in language that I love and there´s also the amazing hot weather that is completely welcomed as well. But what I´ve been enjoying the most is going out and talking with my cousin Walter. The last time I came we were all about 13-14 so were shy little kids, but now that we´re grown up it feels like this bond is being formed. I´ve lived my whole life with my family far away, unlike many people who have their family fairly close to Vancouver so getting to know my cousin and actually feeling like family is...it makes me feel all warm inside for lack of a better way of explaining it. I can´t wait to start getting to know my other cousins better as well, I just haven´t seen them yet but its bound to happen.
We´re about to head out for lunch now with my aunt, my cousin and Walter. LATER.
