In the swing of things

by Micah

We are over two weeks in, and I think we´re really starting to get into a rhythm now. Training is good; between language, cultural, and technical sessions, we spend about 40 hours per week in training, so we´re pretty occupied. Our host family is great. We went to a Día del Campesino festival at the local school on Sunday, and our host parents kept buying us different kinds of traditional foods to try. Then they took us out to dinner that night. They´re very giving and really want to make us a part of their family, so we´re quite pleased.

We made our first trip to Lima on Saturday. Saw some touristy stuff, but it´s difficult to get a handle on such a big city in a few hours, so we´ll have to return with more of a plan so we can see the things we´re most interested in.

My 0.5 hr. of internet is almost up, so adiós for now.
