Bienvenidos to Punta Arenas - A city at the end of the world
Buenos Dias Everybody!
On Tuesday, after traveling for more than 24 hours, I arrived safely and on schedule in Punta Arenas, Chile (Thank you airlines-Continental, American, LAN and Raytheon Polar Services/AGUNSA), the world’s southernmost city of its size.
Punta Arenas is located in South America on the Strait of Magellan, named after Ferdinand de Magellan the Spanish explorer, who circumnavigated the earth around 1520.
Note to my students – Spanish rules!

I wish I had some of you on my site helping me out with the Spanish language. Finding my way around, paying a taxi, translating food names, and saying to my host that the breakfast was muy bueno all in "Spenglish with German accent" cause similes and confusion. Can you help me learning Spanish better when I am back, please? I will teach you German in exchangeJ.

Back to work, hitching a taxi, finding the Raytheon Polar Services (RPSC)/ Agencias Universales S.A. (AGUNSA) warehouse, getting my Polar cloths and looking for el pingüino. I keep you posted.
Hasta lavista,
Ute Kaden
