This morning, I almost slept through my project. Irish Kevin had to wake me up this morning. It was 8:30am, I was late, and Caitlin was waiting for me in the lobby. I got ready in 20 minutes and we were out the door. At our project, Margoth decided to read a few fairy tales to the kids. After she was done, she asked me if I could read one tomorrow. I was a bit hesitant at first, but thought that Spanish was not too hard to read, it was like French! After the sto...

There was a strike going on today for taxis and bus drivers, so none of us were able to go to out projects. A bunch of us decided to walk to the Plaza. Walking to the Plaza was a little odd. The streets were almost deserted. We were told that there were some taxi drivers still driving, but that it would be really dangerous to go into one, because people would just end up throwing rocks... There were trucks of army people around, just in case a riot were to break...

Caitlin and I were going to our project this morning. However, before that, we had to stop at Maximo Nivel to pick up the care package that my mother left me (for the kids, not for me).

The Spaniards were not here today and were not going to be here anymore. As soon as I entered the class, all of...

Today, the school in which I have my project was closed because it was teacher appreciation day. So Caitlin, Kevin (another Kevin from Ireland that now lives with us), Morat, Kelly, Winnie, Maria, and myself decided to go to the Inka Museum (probably the biggest one in Cuzco) today. Most of the people that were with us had their orientation at 12pm, so they wanted to kill time before. When we got there, around 10:30am, we found out that it cost 10 Soles (or 3$),...

I was really excited about today because I was going to have an educational and cultural day. I got up and decided to make french crepes again (I made some yesterday morning as well). Maritza had wanted me to make them again and Patricia was there this morning so I decided to make for her as well. I was leaving this morning at 10am with Caitlin to see a few museums. When we got to the Plaza des Armas, we were feeling a bit hungry so we decided to try Bembos. Bem...
