Day 3-4

In these two days, we have traveled to many amazing buildings and parks. The church Benedictine Monastery Las Condes gave me a really deep impression. It uses simple materials to create a clean and sacred space. The interaction between the dark gray walls and the white walls is good and also the different patterns and tailings on them soften the contrast to make the place closer to people. The light pouring down from the gaps between walls, surrounding the central cross of the church. I like to visit churches where make me feel peaceful and this church is one of the greatest ones I’ve visited.
I had two good lunches these two days. One was in Mestizo and one was in El Anclg today with Momo, Shihan, Ziyuan, and Jackie. We had a group lunch in Mestizo and I ordered salmon and the cake in the glass bottle. The salmon was really, but the dessert was tooooooo sweet for me (haven’t tried a dessert sweet like this even in America). El Anclg was a recommended seafood restaurant on Yelp, so we decided to try it. Many kinds of seafood can be found there and the flavor was good (though a little bit salty). I ordered crab claws. The sauce I haven’t tried before, which is super heavy. It’s not bad but it covered the flavor of crab claws, so I think it’s too strong for me. Really miss the Cantonese seafood in Shenzhen!
