After crossing the border into Chile we took a bus down south to La Serena, a nice town about 8 hours north of Santiago. The busride down took 22 hours and was exhausting since we had to get off the bus several times for police controls (one of them at 1.00 in the morning). They make you take all your luggage off the bus and then go through your stuff searching for drugs - in our case all they found was dirty clothes and stinky socks. Must be a really unpleasant job!
Chile has been nice so far even though it is a lot more western than Ecuador and Peru and also A LOT more expensive! :(
Talking to locals can be really frustrating and makes me feel like the 4 weeks of Spanish classes were worth nothing! The people here talk sooooo fast and shorten a lot of the words. Most of the time when I listen to them I just go : "Whaaaaat???!!!???" afterwards... and they´ll repeat it again... in the same speed!!! Buhuuuu!
