　　I was twentytwo，and in Bolivia.I’d been to every other country in South America，and now I was set on getting into Chile，the last on the list.

　　After several days，I reached the hills.It was cold，and even the distant mountains were clear.The days were lonely，but one evening I met Filomeno and his fellow teachers.They tried to persuade me not to go to Chile，saying it was a bad place，and that I would be killed.I didn’t believe them.I knew nothing of the current politics；I just wanted to go there.

　　So I walked into the mountains，feeling excited，and came to a sign with the word “Chile” on it.A frightening soldier appeared，stuck a gun in my back，and pushed me down a slope to the police station.The police chief then told me，“There’s nothing for you here.” I explained that I had come to see this beautiful country.But he was annoyed.

　　In the evening they filled me with food.There was laughter，and I was less tense.Then the police chief took me to a tiny cell.I lay down on the mattress(垫子)．Even though I had no light and none of my possessions，I felt euphoric.At least I had arrived！And what a story I’d have to tell！The next morning I was released，and I was told that Chile didn’t want me.Throwing my belongings into my backpack，I shouted and screamed at the soldiers.After all this effort I was being sent home！I stomped(以重踏步方式走) towards Bolivia expecting to feel a bullet.But I’d be back！I told myself.
