starstruck

Justin Bieber made an appearance in Lautaro, Araucania, Chile today. Or at least his signature did.

All the Araucania volunteers gathered in Temuco this morning for “a cultural exchange with an integrated Mapuche school”. The students performed a traditional dance for the twenty gringos, and then we ate their food. I brought box brownies made by host mom. After the ceremony and gluttony, the students shyly brought out notebooks and pens. They asked the gringoiest of the gringos to sign. As I was signing, I noticed several “Hannah Montana” and “Justin Bieber” firmas – to be fair, there is a Hannah from Montana, but Parker Villapando is no JB.
