March - July 2020
Chile is the second Country in South America on my big trip. I barely made it over the border, before they closed it due to the Corona Virus Mid March 2020. 🦠 Read more

    Kaits Bday

    July 8, 2020 in Chile ⋅ ☁️ 12 °C

    Today is Kaits birthday!! 🥳🎂

    First, we all had an American Breakfast together. It was so delicious, with orange juice, different kind of cooked potatoes, bacon and more 🤤

    Later, we all walked to their friends terrace together. We had to walk in small groups though, because Valparaiso still has a lock down. 🤫

    Don't make me mention the stairs ... Omg 😂
    They were uneven, partly broken and I don't know how many steps I had to make to reach their house and terrace! 🥵

    But it was definetly worth it! ❤️ The view over Valparaiso from up there is so amazing. You can not even put it in words. Too bad we didn't went there before. 🙈

    We brought drinks, some snacks and later that night had a fire, the party lastet a looong time, until we had to return to the hostel. 🥳

    There is a lock down, but you can still leave the house during the day to get like food or medicine. However, after 10 is a No Go and we did not wanted to get caught by the police or military!!

    Kait enjoyed that day and so did we!! Thank you for this special moment and everything we have been through together here!! 😘❤️

    Au Revoir, Tristan

    July 9, 2020 in Chile ⋅ ⛅ 14 °C

    The next one of the Frenchis is leaving! 💔
    This morning before 10 am, Tristan left the MUFFIN to travel back to France. 😢

    He left us a note on the board, said goodbye to everone (especially to Sofia 😍) and then started his long travel back (over Frankfurt in Germany).

    He arrived safe and sound at his home and already sent us a picture together with his family, outside in the Garden.

    I hope to see you again one day Tristan, it was a pleasure to meet you, many thanks for all the fun moments together, the good food, also the french classes, the talks and of course our kitchen towel fights!! 😂😂😂

    Adiós, Sofia!

    July 10, 2020 in Chile ⋅ ☁️ 15 °C

    And today, it was time to say Goodbye and Adiós to Sofia! 😢
    Even tho I know that saying goodbye is always a sad thing, I hope to see Sofia again one day in Mexico! 💃

    Girl, thank you soo much for the wonderful time together at the MUFFIN hostel, the laughs, the tears we shared, the amazing food - Arepas, Gnocchis, Shakshuka, just to name a few! 🤤

    Sofia will first fly to Miami, the same flight that Mariel and I will take next week on our way to the Dominican Republic.
    Then she wants to see her sisters, family and later move to Mexico.
    And since my plan is to go to Mexico too, the chances are really high that we will meet again! ❤️

    Take good care, Amiga 😘

    Adiós MUFFIN, Valparaiso and Chile

    July 17, 2020 in Chile ⋅ ☁️ 13 °C

    Now our turn to leave the MUFFIN Hostel has come! 😓

    Of course, I am really sad to leave this hostel, that has been my second home for the last 4 months. But I am also looking forward to my new adventures in the Dominican Republic and even afterwards. 🎒🧭

    We packed all our stuff, had a last dinner together and then said our final goodbye. 😭😭

    Mariel and I walked to the bus stop to catch the bus leaving at 3.10pm to the airport of Santiago.

    We took 5 different documents for the controls on the way. There were a lot of controls because of Covid-19. 🦠

    At the airport, after a really long bus ride, we checked in our package and waited at the gate. I heared my name on the speaker and was asked to do a drug test! From the US govermnent! 🤬
    I was so mad, I wasn't even allowed to use the bathroom or brush my teeth before! 🙄

    Everything was ok, but since I was separated from Mariel, she was worried and so everybody in our MUFFIN WhatsApp group. I pranked them and said the police was called, but quickly realized they were really worried and told them the truth! 😂😂😂

    After the night in the plane, 11 hours at the airport of Miami and 2 more hours in a crowed! (no social distancing) flight, we finally arrived at the airport in the capital of the Dominican Republic, Santo Domingo. ❤️
