Who is that???

I'm the "other" faculty member taking this voyage to Chile. I find it very exciting to be a part of this international residency, and look forward to meeting the group! I plan to blog regularly as I will have my iPhone in tow. 😃

predeparture preparations

Here's a pre-trip blog entry. Only a few days before we fly to Chile. It's winter south of the equator, so it's been surreal looking for gloves, scarves, and insulated socks when it's over 100 F here in Kansas. I've learned one Chilean saying...
Estan cayendo los patos asados.
literally: Roasted ducks are falling from the sky.
in other words: It is really hot outside.
