Día Uno

 Día Uno in Santiago


After a 14 and a half hour flight we were ready to begin our adventure. I'm not entirely sure what I expected of Chile or Santiago, but I definitely did not expect it to look this picturesque. Seeing the mountains surrounding the city when we stepped out of the airport was something I was not ready for. To start our travels we firstly settled into our apartments which we would be calling home for the next three months. (Thanks to Aimee for bringing multiple packs of bunting to help make us feel more at home!)


A short while later, off we went exploring the city of Santiago. Our first stop of this trip was to climb up the tallest building in South America to get some better views of our new home. Up Sky Costanera we went, 61 floors high, towering over Santiago. Stepping out of the lift, the views of the Andes took my breathe away. The views were absolutely stunning!

Wondering around to find some places to eat was our next mission. Stumbling across a sports bar just a block away from home was a decent find (think we've found our local). After some good food, off to bed we went, completing our first day of our three month long trip.

Bring on these three months!
