For me the Fiestas Patrias began on friday, September 13th. That day I arrived in Coquimbo, my city of birth. My boyfriend greeted me at the bus terminal with flowers and from there we went straight to a friends house for the first "carrete" of fiestas patrias.
That first day was really exhausting, in the morning i had a test, then i went directly to the bus terminal, and after 7 hours on the road i arrived to a "carrete". Because of that I rested for the rest of the weekend.
The rest of the days were more relaxing. I went to la Pampilla with my family and we bougth a lot of little silly things. It was super fun, I missed doing those things with my family.
Saddly, I couldn't see my other friends, because we couldn't coincide in the times, but we were able to play in call anyway.
The last day was nice and I had mixed feelings, on the one hand I was sad to have to return to Santiago, but on the other hand I was a little excited because I had recovered motivation to continue in the race. That day I went to the Fuerte Coquimbo with my boyfriend and it was one of the most beautiful experiences of this year.
I also wanted to get together with my friends, but it wasn't possible :(
