Sleep? who sleeps?

Well i´ve officially arrived in santiago! Flying in over the andes was incredible and the temperature isnt nearly as cold as i thought  it would be. I dont check into my hostel until tommorrow so i am making a quick post from my mums old school friends house. At the moment i am running on no sleep, the flight was 16 hrs and so its effectively 4:30 am in sydney, time i should be sleeping, but in chile its only 3pm so i have to stay up another 7 hrs to get the pattern right. Add onto that the fact that i dont understand a thing people are saying and that i feel rude because they are so accomidating to me and i dont know how to let them know how much i appreciate it. Saying Gracias a lot doesnt seem to cut it. Anyways this is more of a bitch than a post cos i havnt done anything yet... but i just wanted to vent. Adios
