Yikes!
I’m about a month behind in writing these, but I’ll try to let you know the important details:
1. Peru is awesome! Go there. Seriously. Buy your tickets now.
2. Don’t travel to the south of Chile in the rainy season (at least not if you want to climb any volcanoes)
3. It’s tough to travel and work at the same time (but overall really worth it)
4. Most exciting of all: I’m not sure how many of you know this already, but I’m planning on applying for a Fulbright Grant in Germany to study after I graduate to study reconciliation after the fall of the Berlin Wall. I’m also interested in researching reconciliation and trauma recovery after military and other violent regimes. So, after talking to the director of the program here, it looks like I’m going to be able to interview a few people from the Chilean National Truth and Reconciliation Commission and the Vicaría de la Solidaridad. I’m really psyched! I will definitely update you about these later.
Now that you have the basics, I’m going to update my photos, and it’ll take me a few blogs probably, so I’ll start with the most recent and work
backwards.
I hope you’re all enjoying the fall weather!
Missing everyone,
Meg
