Also, I had my Spanish test to see which level I should be in. We begin class tomorrow, but things are still pretty relaxed here.
I am having a bit of a struggle narrowing down my options for independent research at the end of the trip. I don't have to know exactly what I want to study now, but I would like to have a better idea. Originally, I wanted to study the future of women in Chilean politics. That is still a very good option but everywhere I turn there seems to be interesting things to study. For example, the education protests here are really interesting. Basically, the students and teachers are asking for cheeper education and overall reform to make education more accessible. Most of the local universities are shut down for the protests and it's really relevant to current politics and my life as a student. I am still in exploration mode but let me know if you have any ideas. I am new to this research thing.
