First Days in Chile

So I finally made it to Valdivia!  It took a while, but after almost a full 24 hours of traveling and a little confusion about my surfboards, I made it to my new home.  Today marks the 6th day I've been in Chile, and so far it's awesome.  The food is really good, the people are friendly, the city is beautiful, and the public transportation system is pretty easy to navigate.  I start classes today at La Universidad Austral De Chile, and while I'm a little nervous about taking a full class load in spanish, I'm stoked to be in school again.
