A pressing engagement in Chile

I am now back in Cochabamba after a most wonderful three week break in Chile and La Paz. The best thing was not actually the holidays, which were wonderful, but the fact that four friends and my girlfriend who had never met before all got on like a house on fire. With Mangal (Kenya), Jo (UK), Elna (Spain) and Katuscia (Italy) we went rafting, mountain biking, visited vineyards, relaxed in the hot springs, ate delicious seafood, saw Latin America's biggest fireworks display on new year's eve in Valparaiso and much, much more. Honourable mention also to Marioly's family who looked after us in Arica and Pedro and Pamela, my Chilean friends, who showed us the hidden corners of Santiago.



Oh, and Marioly and I got engaged. Actually the title of this blog entry is misleading, we did not get engaged in Chile, but in La Paz. A wonderful holiday with a most wonderful ending.
