I was able to buy groceries to make a full meal for four people for only $30! (which is very cheap, Mr. Chvala could maybe confirm this?)

What was the best meal this week?:

I will be very honest. My friends and I devoured lots of random street food. I mostly ate fries, chips, eggs, bacon and some random foods I got from street vendors. However, two of my friends decided to get arepas on the first night of our trip. I got to taste a bite of it, and it was the best that I have ever had!

What music did I listen to this week?:

Aurora's Top 3 Songs This Week (I have a very eclectic taste in music, sorry [not sorry])

  • Emptiness by BoA (K-Pop) 
  • Why Don't We Go There by One Direction (Pop) Fun Fact: I've played this song anytime I get on a plane when we take off and start our landing without fail since I was 17 years old.
  • El Corazón Al Sur (The Heart to the South) by Eladia Blázquez (Tango)
What activity was the most fun this week?:

I loved the beach, but the wine tours that my friends and I went on were an amazing experience as well.

At the first winery (Estancia El Cuadro), we got to see Chilean horses, try 26 different types of grapes (don't worry, I also thought there were only two types of grapes) straight from the vines and taste test four wines, and learn about the history of the winemaking process in Chile.

At the second winery (Casa Valle Viñamar or Valley House), we got to try three different types of sparkling wine (Extra Brut, Brut and Rose) and have a nice dessert platter that paired well with the wines.
