Dont cry for me Argentina I wiill be back
I left for Argentina on thursday morning. Warning, dont ever try to go to Argentina without your passport. I left my passport in Vina. Worst day of my life. We got to the Argentina border at around noon. All I had was a photocopy of my passport, my visa, and my student ID card from the U of L. They made everyone get off the bus at the checkpoint and it was time to say goodbye to my friends; they wouldnt let me in. I asked the Cabineros for some help and they pointed me towards a store with telephones and burgers. All I remember is that the Andes are really f#@king cold. I called my mom in Chile to let her know what happened, then I went to figure out how to get back to Chile. Four hours later a ski bus picked me up on his way back from Mendoza. I got to Santiago around 10:30pm. There were no buses back to Vina, but luckily someone asked me if I needed a cab for 15000 pesos (30 dollars). I got back to my house around 1 am. About 7 hours before I would have made it to Buenas Aires. Argentina I will see you soon. Im happy that my ticket is still valid :).
