I´m in Valparaiso, Chile right now. Had a fabulous day with the guys in Mendoza which began and ended with loads of champagne and red wine (we had momosas for breakfast, a champagne vineyard, a wine vineyard, and then went to a wine tasting event). Then, I pretty much spent the day on the bus to Santiago and then to Valparaiso (which felt horrible after all the champagne and wine from the day before). I met Seb there in the evening and we hung out and had dinner and drinks. Today was spent running from bank to bank. First, trying to get the money that we needed (to pay for the trip) in Pesos and then trying to convert them to Euros. It was quite a hassle, but we have a good chunk of the money sorted now. Hopefully, we´ll get the rest all finished up in the morning. As it turns out, we´re still 7 hours away from our meeting point and we´re supposed to be there tomorrow afternoon. I just can´t wait to be finished with all this admin in the middle of the ocean, sailing . . .

About Me
- Name: Amber
- Location: Chicago, Illinois, United States
I originally started this blog last August to document my final college semester participating in Semester at Sea. I had the time of my life sailing around the world with almost 700 other college students in 100 days, visiting 10 ports on 3 continents. In fact, it was so amazing that I decided to keep going. I extended my graduation and post-poned starting my new job. I’m off to Argentina from late January until late May to learn Spanish on another study abroad program. Then, I’ll come back and graduate (hopefully!!!). After that, I have until September and a dwindling savings account to play with. Who knows where I’ll end up!!! Stay tuned!
