Always together

It was 1996, or so I remember, on a beautiful day in Iquique. It was a year in which chores and homework were not a problem for this two girls to be worried about.

I may not remember the year, but I sure remember it was summer and it was January 15^th, the only day that separated our birthdays, a special day that united us, in a sense a lot bigger than friendship, that special day we were sisters. I know her since I got memory, our parents lived in the same street in Iquique before we even were born, they got to know each other and became friends immediately, but it was out of luck that we were roommates in the hospital, and later on, we never separated. She was born the 14^th, I was born the 16^th, and the 15^th was OUR day, the day that we decided we would celebrate together for the rest of our lives, and this photo is an example taken that special day by my father.

We became best friends along the way, sharing experiences, food, laughs, relationships, even zodiac signs!

We later decided to remake this photograph in our 2009 version of ourselves, in the same stance and smile, and it was a replica, the same energy and good vibe was reflected, and we still laugh at this photograph today, remembering that the year I was born, I was to be followed not only by my shadow, but also by my best friend, Anneliese.
