Hey! Jade here. =) We’ve just arrived in Santiago and I’m very excited because this is my first time in Chile! We’re here because Giovanna, Lara and I won tickets to see an international competition of extreme sports! What a thrill! Our flight was late, so we missed the opening ceremony of the event… But it’s OK because tomorrow we’re going to see kitesurfing, parkour, white-water rafting and even windsurfing competitions! Me and the girls are very hungry! Food at the airport is too expensive, so they didn’t want to eat there. Lucky me, because I don’t have much money to spend! That’s all for today. Stay tuned because I’m going to post lots of photos!
