GYMDANCE!

As I've mentioned before, the typical Chilean diet contians a large quantity of bread. In my efforts to immerse myself in the Chilean culture, I have, therefore, consumed large quantities of bread.

So I decided to find myself a gym.

I started yesterday, finally. It's this funny little place about a fifteen-minute walk from my house, where there are mixed aerobics/dance/punching/situps/jumping classes every weeknight. From what I can tell, most people go a few times a week, if not nightly, which I like, because it a) motivates me to go more frequently and b) will hopefully let me get to know some of the people there!

All of this is not that exciting or important... but there's something that is.


This is the guy who teaches the class (and owns the gym?). His picture is blue because I took it from their website. But that's not important either. What's important is that his name is Angelo. And he really reminds me of Angelo (Fu) from Midd. They dance kind of similarly, although Chilean Angelo has yet to whip out the robot... hahahaha. I will never forget my aerobics instructor's name...
Love and endorphins,
Tiernan
