it's been a few days...

it's been a few days...

I've taken some time off from the blog these past couple of days because I've been trying to squeeze in as much time as possible to explore Miroflores and Lima some more before we fly off to Cusco and Machu Picchu for a couple of days. 

We only have a few more days left at the school and it's getting kind of sad that our time with the kids are almost over.  They are all such sweet kids and love you unconditionally.  RP and I have been working on public health lessons with the kids and although it's tough to get the point across in Spanish most of the time, we're starting to see how our lessons are actually impacting their lives.

Tonight, we went to a delicious Italian restaurant right by Huaca Pucllana for some dinner and dessert.  JD and I shared a 4 queso Gnocchi and wait for it ....  A NUTELLA SHAKE. yes, they exist and yes, I will be making that everyday when I come home.

I also had to take out more money from my parents' visa because I've exhausted my funds :(  I've bought so many souvenirs as of late, trying to make sure everyone has something from Peru when I come home! I bought a few Alpaca blankets for mine and CT's family and small things here are there, that I shouldn't disclose, for the element of surprise :)

I'm starting to feel sad that we have to leave Lima so soon to come back home.  I can stay for another 2 weeks if possible!!! I want to explore some more, but i miss my dog, family, boyfriend and friends.  However, I have plans to come back to Peru very soon, to explore some more, since my Spanish is at a level where I can survive in a foreign city!

That's all for now, I probably won't update again until I come back from Machu Picchu. 


Hasta  Luego, xoxo -m
