!!!! wow. I can't really describe the feeling I have when I walk around here - my heart just feels so full. I'm incredibly fortunate.
I have been having such an amazing time so far - playing music, going to concerts, eating delicious meals with my sweet wonderful charming friends, going to the river, to the beach . . . and to top it all off - today I found the apartment I was dreaming of. If there is a god, I swear she's trying to tell me something because I found this place by sheer coincidence. The agency that rents it is called 'inmobiliaria
AMOR' . . . and it just happens to be right next to the very church where I played that concert with my dad and brother - the very concert that brought me to Santiago to first place, where I met Silvia and Xacobe and Xabier (my friends here) - the concert that inspired me to really start playing music...
Today when I went to go see the place, I got the keys and they didn't work. I stood there for 15 minutes trying to open the door but there was something else blocking it. I called the agency and they apologized but said there was nothing they could do to help. I had been sooo excited to see this place and I was equally as frustrated that I couldn't get in. I went to go have a tea to calm myself down, and wouldn't you know it, I spilled it all over myself and my book :/ I was about to return to the keys to the agency but I decided to go back and try one more time. As I was walking over there - just like clockwork - the sun came out. And the women who lives upstairs just happened to be looking out the window when I walked up, so I asked her to come down and let me in.
It's just like my dad once told me - sometimes the universe sends you little signs to tell you that your on the path your supposed to be on. I think today was one of those little signs :)
