ali to chile: ITS NOT COLD

so apparently the arrival of april signified the beginning of a colder season, one which i have yet to experience. instinctively, chileans have begun leaving their houses in jackets, scarves, gloves, hats and boots at the same time as i wear my sandals, skirts and tanktops. the best part about this habit is the way people ask me, ´´arent you cold´´ ´´cold, no, arent you hot?´´. the looks i get are also pretty awesome. i guess this has been the warmest year in quite some time, maybe im in for a shock or something, but i still say that even the coldest nights here (as the nights have actually gotten colder) can not compare to walking to class in a michigan january. these people only think theyre cold. to be fair, it has gotten colder at night, but barely enough to justify a coat.
