Joy says...

¡Hóla amigos!

My trip to the longest country in the world was really a special treat! Chile has many different landscapes and traditions all together in one amazing country! The lush green rainforests reminded me of home, and the dry deserts were something I'd never seen before. There was so much to learn and do, I could spend a year there and STILL not see everything!
