Cachai?: Pucón Parte 2
Hola amigos! This post will be a little more visual meaning more photos and less text in order to not make this post too long. Anyways, the photos I will be showing you all below are of Volcano Villarica and Parque Nacional Huerquehue. They are not the best quality since they were taken on my ...
Cachai?: Pucón Parte 1
Hola amigos! So this past weekend I went with a large group of friends to the small city of Pucón, Chile. This place is gorgeous and the natural beauty surrounding the city, like Lake Villarica and Volcano Villarica, have made Pucón a big tourist attraction. The outskirts of city have an array of small, town-like ...
Cachai?: Cena Internacional
Hola amigos! This weekend I could not really do anything fun since I have 2 exams this week which I really need to study for. Although most of this weekend was far from exciting and was mostly just studying, we did have a small “international dinner” (“cena internacional”) the past Friday at my residency. Everyone ...
Cachai?: Metro y Micro
Hola amigos! This will be another helpful post for any future Drexel students thinking about studying abroad in Chile.

There are some areas that are a little far off from transportation, but the Metro and micro (bus) usually take ...
Cachai?: Las Palabras Chilenas
Hola amigos! I should have done a post about this earlier on, but it is better late than never. So, kind of like Philly and its use of “jawn”, Chile has loads of words that you will not hear anywhere else. They are specific to Chile and nowhere else. Thus, I thought it would helpful ...

Most often you will here the holiday referred to as “el Dieciocho” because a majority of the celebrations occur on the 18th; however, it is possible for events and festivals (fondas) ...
Cachai?: Viña Undurraga
Hola amigos! So after a long stressful weekend full of two exams, I definitely needed to treat myself and what better treat then trying out different kinds of wine (vino)! Joining CAUC on another one of their events, our group met up to take a bus out of Santiago and to a place called Viña ...
Cachai?: Fantasilandia
Hola amigos! Since I had 2 exams coming up, I did not have much time this weekend to go out. Nonetheless, I did not want to completely stay indoors so my friend Lua and I took it upon ourselves to use half of Sunday (September 4th) to go out and the other half to study ...
Cachai?: Tour de Plaza de Armas y Santa Lucia
Hola amigos! On one of my recent adventures I went on a tour of Plaza de Armas with my friend and her Tandem partner. Before I continue and just completely leave you guys wondering what Tandem is, let me just explain it. So for foreign exchange students who want to improve their language or Chileans ...
