A PIECE OF HOME IN CHILE!!!!

Hola!
I am so sorry that I have not written in here in so long. Nothing too exciting has been happening for awhile... I have not done any traveling or no more tear gas stories! But today Hannah and I went to Isla Negra... which initially I thought was an Island but it turns out that no, its just a city about 2 hours down the coast from Vina! The main reason for going to Isla Negra was to go see the house of Pablo Neruda who was termed the greatest poet of the 20th century and apparently was very influential in Chilean Politics. His house was utterly amazing. We first took the bus from Valparaiso to Isla Negra where the bus then just dropped us off on the side of the road and sped away. So we were like hm... this shall be interesting. We started to walk and saw the parking lot for Pablo Neruda's house and then just went down random roads because of course, there are no signs! So we finally end up at his house and we took a tour of it and it was incredible. After the tour was over (fully in spanish, and I could understand almost everything!!!) we were allowed to take pictures outside and Hannah and I just took in the scenery. Later we walked back to the main road and took a micro to another town down the coast called San Antonio because apparently they have excellent restaurants. Hannah and I walked along the beach where all the restaurants are and had lunch at a restaurant on the beach. Then we took the bus back to Valparaiso and I came home at about 6. It was a really relaxing but super fun day. I will post some pics for you guys to see. I don't know whats next in my chilean adventures but I will write soon! Chao chao.
