I´m about to board an overnighter to San Pedro but I couldn´t wait to tell you all about the first tassie connection. At the moment we are staying with a Chilean family in La Serena, this coastal town north of Santiago.This is not a particularly popular place let me just stress, its just some random town off the map. Staying with us ,are maybe five or six other guests. LAst night, we were sitting around drinking pisco and Steve made friends with this girl KAtie. Turned out she was about to lead tours through the Inca trek and so we were asking her lots of questions. We asked where she had guided before and it turned out she had just been working in Tas, leading tours over the overland track. I was like ...oh yeah right I´m from Tassie. Katie was like oh we will know some of the same people...like say...Kirsten Grant. I´ve just hit the floor laughing "I´ve known her foreever we went to high school together i got a e-mail from her yesterday!!!" It was too funny. So there you go Kirsten you are my first TAs conneciton...(ps Katie is fantastic !!! )(she says she misses you...photos of the two of us to appear real soon on this page ...)
