Last two weeks

We decided to try out one of the many Korean restaurants in Barrio Patronato (Koreans that came in the 70s settled there, a traditionally immigrant-dominated neighborhood). We were 18 in total, and ordered both Korean table barbecue and other Korean dishes for sharing, and it was amazing!! And of course we did not miss the obligatory Soju+beer combo. (Rice wine)

I have been missing Asian flavors, so this was a perfect dinner for me :)

The university had arranged a day for us to do voluntary work and play with kids from an orphanage 2 hours from Santiago. It was a day with a lot of waiting (Chilean "efficiency"), and a lot of running around and playing with the kids. I had signed up to be in the group playing games and sports, and we were 20 in total..but only 8 boys came to us! The rest all went to get face painting, dancing, and painting pictures. We were a little disappointed in the beginning, as we had planned so many games, but at the end we were just walking around and would just play with everyone.

Then the day came where we were going to have an International Fair! And as the only one from Aarhus university (and Scandinavia), I was representing Denmark. I made posters, a video about student life, bought beers (Found Carlsberg, Harboe and Slots!!), put on Danish music, and prepared bread with leverpostej (Liver pate), mayo and cucumber. Everyone loved it!!

In the weekend we went to surf in Con Con (20 minutes from Viña del Mar).
The first day we had an instructor, and rented boards and wet suits for only 10000CLP (100DKK/112NOK), and the next day we went without an instructor for 7000CLP (70DKK/78NOK). Super cheap, and super fun!! The second day the current was so strong, and the waves so big, but we still managed to surf a little bit. Now I am hooked on surfing, and already going back this Thursday..
