Well, I've got one day to go before I leave.

So I've decided to start this blog to let people know what's going on as I embark on this crazy adventure. I'm not sure how easy it is going to be to communicate while I'm down in Chile for the next 8 1/2 months teaching English, so I figured I'd try a blog. I'm not sure how great I'll be about adding entries here since I'm not sure what my computer situation is going to be (And yes, I'm leaving my laptop at home. I feel a little liberated by cutting the wires, but I've got a feeling I'll have a little computer withdrawal when I get down there.) So check in as often as you want (or as little as you want because this could be really boring. I mean how interesting can a blog be when the only Spanish words you know are taco and cerveza.) I think my gringoness is going to be very apparent, since I might be the gringoest of all gringos.

Maybe you'll find keen insights into the inner workings of the global economy through the lens of a foreign national exposed to the Chilean culture but more likely you'll be exposed to my crazy stream of consciousness. So thanks for reading. T.J.
