Antofagasta, Chile Update

So it's been about a week and a half of cruising Antofagasta zones in Chile.  This place is beautiful and the people are very nice with a lot of aloha.  Trevor and I stayed with Sebastian Kreft for about 5 nights then we moved into another zone because Dubb and Dan from Hawaii arrived and took our place in Sebastians house.  Our new zone that we are staying at is with this amazing family that I've never met before and they took us in like we were part of the family.  I've chatted to R Sverdlov Matras aka Ricky(nephew of his aunt that owns the house) via Facebook a couple of times before coming here and he said no problem you can stay with me.  It's been good times for sure.  We've been BBQing, eating local Chilean foods, skateboarding with his friends, enjoying beautiful sunsets, picking shells to make allkine necklaces, and having fun.  The contest has started and I'm in round 5 heat 2 which will be surfed tomorrow.  Thank you to everyone in Antofagasta for the good times especially to Sebastian Kreft, Ricky, Alfanso(Ricky's little cousin), and Ada(Ricky's aunt) for taking care of us.  Also, to everyone for the support!  Life is good :)  aloha
