Farewell Peru!

I don´t really have time to write anything more than this: I´m leaving Peru tomorrow! Tomorrow morning...early. Groan. But I am SO EXCITED about coming home because I miss it! Also, hopefully when I arrive tomorrow night, I will have a cat with me. :) This is after hours of phone calls to...

Peruvian Men, Wine, and Sand Dunes

So, the last time I left off describing my trip, Amy and I had just finished up a tour of Paracas National Reserve and seen desert, ocean, and flamingos from afar. Let me start from the next day. So, the next day, Amy and I took a bus down the coast a bit to Ica. Neither one of us...

Cuy

Hey everyone! So, I don´t have much time for a long entry, but I thought I´d update on what it´s been like being back in Cusco the past week. Amy and I got a warm welcome upon returning to the homestay and were immediately served (of course), potatoes with rice for dinner. Gatita was...

Desert, raw fish, and flamingos!

I believe I left off describing Amy´s and my adventures in Paracas. First, we took a boat tour out to the Islas Ballestas and saw thousands of birds/lots of bird shit...I wore my hood the whole time because our guide (Luis) said that having your head shat on while you are out in the boat is not...

Back in Cusco

Well, I am back in Cusco now as of a couple hours ago. And I never thought I would say this, but I am SO GLAD to be back...mostly because that means I am finally off the bus, which I was on for 22 and a half hours...it was a long twisty turny drive through the mountains, so I´m happy to be back...

Gatita is NOT a Hussy!

Amy and I took Gatita to the vet today and she´s not pregnant after all! Yaaaaay! Also, we are leaving Cusco tonight! Yaaaaaay! We are going to Arequipa and will then head to the coast and move north. My communication may be a bit spotty over the next couple weeks until I get back to Cusco...

Gatitia is a Hussy

Oh my god, the cat we want to rescue and bring back to the states with us is PREGGERS. We totally thought that she was just getting less emaciated. No wonder she was so skinny...the babies inside her were eating her from the inside out! But now she has a little belly and Amy and I were so...

"No llaves."

So, this funny little story actually took place a couple weeks ago, but seeing as I´ve been too busy to write about it, I´m going to tell it now. One Monday night (June 14th?), Amy and I got invited to go to a yoga class by another FairPlay student, Will. We went to the class and afterwards...

A Typical Day in Peru

So, I realized I havent given any great descriptions of what a typical day here is like for me. Im going to do that now and im going to do it without apostrophes because the keyboard im typing this on is on crack. So, Amy and I wake up at 6:30 am every day to get ready for Spanish classes. ...
