Back to Chile

Read on

December 15, 2009

For not the first, but the second time in a year, I am so happy to be going back to Chile. It was wonderful to spend time with family, even though we didn’t come under the best circumstances. And while we were here, I wasn’t missing home at all, I just focused on the task at hand and getting as much quality time in with my parents as possible. But still, we’ve been away from home, in various continents and countries, the past 4 out of 5 months of our lives.

I wouldn’t say that I need the stability of staying in any one place for more than a few weeks at a time. I just feel like I’ve put down roots in Chile but I haven’t been there to water them at all, so nothing’s growing.

As you read this, we’re probably on a plane heading home. Because we bought our flights so last minute, we’re stuck with a stopover in Bogota. Joy. Right now it’s 4am, I haven’t slept. We leave for the airport in 15 minutes. Can’t wait to travel, yay!

But, by this evening, we’ll be at home, curled up in bed with Papito sleeping. So worth it :)

  7. We're just laying dormant. Worry not. We'll be here when you get back! Still have to do the gringa meetup, the talk-about-real-estate and who knows what else. Hope everything worked out back “home” and welcome back.

  8. I agree. I've only been in Minnesota a day and I already feel a little lost. Like “What am I supposed to be doing?”
