santiago to punta arenas!
things i learned:
1. if you ask the hostel to call a taxi, tell them to let you know when it gets there as well.
we wasted like 15 min. of precious time sitting around waiting for our taxi when in reality, it had been there the whole time. when i asked when our taxi might arrive (because i knew we were running short on time) the guy at the hostel chuckled and said it had arrived a long time ago. silly me.
2. the flight we are taking to punta arenas stops at puerto montt
3. punta arenas is significantly colder and balmier than santiago. i got off the flight and immediately zipped my legs on and put on my fleece.
4. Lonely Planet did a good job suggesting La Estancia. it is a super cozy hostel in a great location that has the most welcoming owners.
5. punta arenas is really lovely. it is small but full of beautiful greenary, great vendors, friendly locals, a nice beach, and backpackers. just my kind of place!
