globalization at its finest

I'm typing this from a two-story Starbucks in downtown Santiago. I'm sitting on a cushy couch, listening to soft alternative music, surrounded by vaguely abstract wall art, and drinking a mocha latte. If I ignored all the Spanish conversations going on around me, I could be in Tenleytown.

As I attempt to start my 12-page Globalization paper about neoliberal economic policies in Latin America, what could be more appropriate?

UPDATE

They're playing a Regina Spektor song now. I am prepared to camp out here for the next 5 weeks. This is my new home. Does this make me an exchange student fail?
