The first night at Sam's we didn't go out because he had university the next morning so we just hang out with some beers, Sam and his brother went off to some investment meeting and were gone for ages so I spoke to his mother all night eating Chilean cheeses and making sandwiches. The cheese was nice, it had a very strong smell but quite a subtle taste similar to a Swiss emmental cheese, there was another cheese, a fresh cheese. The fresh cheese was really soft and light, it crumbled and melted in your mouth and with a sprinkling of salt tasted amazing, it is similar to an Italian ricotta cheese but a little smoother and lighter. I was made to feel very welcome and at home at Sam's house, I much appreciate all of their kindness, and cooking me food and giving me a bed to sleep in as Sam is now sleeping on the floor in his brothers room.
