Allright, it´s allmost midnight over here. I just want to let you know, that I arrived safely at Iquique (Mauricio´s hometown) yesterday. And wow.. it surely was a long trip! First, I traveled from Amsterdam to Atlanta. The airplane was like 2 hours delayed. And then, when I got there.. I had to wait for like 6 hours! But luckily another Dutch girl could keep me in company. Then I took a flight to Santiago, the capital of Chile. That took another 9 hours ;) And then I had to wait again, for like 4 hours. And after thaaat, I finally took the airplane to Iquique. And that just took 2 hours.
Probably you´re thinking now that I´m suffering from a great jetlag. Well, the truth is.. I don´t suffer at all! I slept long enough in the airplane. And today I woke up at like 09:30! So hey, I´m not doing so bad ;)
About the welcome of the family here... they are so great! I wish I knew Spanish though, since a lot of the family members don´t speak English. Especially his little sisters, they keep talking to me in Spanish. It´s sooo cute, but I don´t understand what they say, haha! They are so curious, sometimes they even hug my leg :) Adinda (my sister), you should loooove kids, when you´ve met his little sisters! You can´t ignore their cuteness.
Mauricio.. gosh, he made me so shy at the airport. Just.. to see him again. After so many months.. He kept staring at me, while I had to wait for my luggage. Made me so shy... haha. It feels so good to be with him again :) I´m sure it´s worth the money that I spent, to get there. And wow.. especially the length of the trip. He´s just so sweet to me.
People from Holland would understand me, if I talk about ´chocolate cigarettes´. For the others... I´ll explain it to you right now! In Holland, we don´t got the traditional santa claus, we got the Dutch santa claus! When ´he´ is in our country, the shops sell traditional candy. One of those candy´s the chocolate cigarettes. The cigarettes look quite real, but really.. it´s chocolate! So.. Mauricio and I are planned to ´scam´ one of his friends, by saying: hey, want a cigarette? And then the person will realise it´s a fake. Haha, I hope we´ll find a victim tomorrow, I´ll keep you up to date!
