San Felipe was a cute little town to live in during my time in Chile. The view of the Andes from my street was so amazing, it looked like it was painted on the sky. The buildings were all so colorful and cute and the church was stunning. My last weekend there was the celebration of 100 years since the founding of the city! I was so lucky to be there during that time because there was a parade and an "artesania" which is basically a market that sells all types of souvenirs and artifacts from all over South America and beyond! Boy, was I in heaven. I think I went to the market three or four times before I was finally satisfied with all my purchases. It was real fun to walk around the market and see all the homemade things that people make in Chile. Although the parade was hard to see, I managed to find my school and take pictures of them as they began marching. It was fun to spend time with the kids outside of school for a bit and I felt proud to be part of the group! A great last week in my Chilean home town!
