 　　Olga: The next place?

 

　　Daniel: The next place would be well Santiago.

 

　　Olga: I don't really look forward to going to Santiago. I would rather go to some other place.

 

　　Daniel: OK then. Then if it's around like the center of the country, I would recommend¹ you to go to Easter Island.

 

　　Olga: Oh, I've heard about it. The place where they have those big statues, right?

 

　　Daniel: Right. Do you know the names of them?

 

　　Olga: Actually no.

 

　　Daniel: OK. They're called Moai statues. Yes, and you can see them. If you take a plane from Santiago, it will take you around five hours and you can see the indigenous² people. You can see the statues and if you're lucky you can stay in a house with an indigenous family.

 

　　Olga: Actually those families, do they speak Spanish?

 

　　Daniel: They do speak Spanish.

 

　　Olga: That's great.

 

　　Daniel: But they also speak their local language.

　　Olga: It is thoroughly³ different from Spanish, right?

 

　　Daniel: It is. It's more close, it's more closer to the Polynesia.

 

　　Olga: I see. That's great.

 

　　Daniel: But it's really interesting and the island it's really beautiful and if you go in summer you can swim and it's going to be a really, really good time.

 

　　Olga: It's not expensive to go there, right?

 

　　Daniel: It's about five hundred dollars.

 

　　Olga: It's OK. Yeah, I can manage.

 

　　Daniel: You have to be careful though because the prices in the island are a bit more expensive than...

 

　　Olga: Yeah, they do that sometimes in Mexico too. Yeah, touristic places.

 

　　Daniel: Yeah. And if you want to go south, I can recommend you Patagonia.

 

　　Olga: Yeah, I heard it's really hard to go there. Is it?

 

　　Daniel: Well it's really hard to get there if you go on the Chilean part but if you go on the Argentinian part it's not that difficult.

 

　　Olga: Then I think we want to go there too.

 

　　Daniel: And it's beautiful because you have a lot of mountains, rivers, glaciers⁴.

 

　　Olga: It sounds so romantic⁵ too.

 

　　Daniel: Yeah. It's good that you go with a boyfriend.
