Side note: I gave my car to my parents to use for my sisters and they spent 800 dollars fixing it up, giving it some new paint, mirrors, fixing the windshield, etc ... So I actually don't know what my car looks like at the moment

Nissan-chan
There are three ways to get around town here in Antofagasta ... bus, taxi and collectivo. A collectivo is a hybrid between a taxi and a bus. It follows a set route like a bus but is a car driven by a person. The interesting thing is that almost all the collectivos here (and there are many many collectivos here ... they are more common then taxis or buses) are Nissans ... more specificly Nissan Sentras from the 1990s. So basically everyday I see car that look just like mine except that they have better seats, better paint jobs, mirrors etc.
