Well, this is it. I can't believe we're to this point. On Tuesday, the day after I got back from Piura, I went to Colibri, determined to go out with a bang! This resolve led me to hang out a lot at the desk that one of the lead teachers used. It was an ideal spot, because a lot of other volunteers liked to hang around there, too....

Hey everyone. I'm looking forward to sharing this week with you. It was quite eventful in significant ways. While I did have an adventure traveling to various places in northern Peru and Ecuador, it was also a week of good-byes and reunions. So the day after we went to the cathedral, some of us went to church. For me it would be my last time going to the ward in Cuzco, so I said good-bye to Antony....

Hey everyone. I apologize for the delay. There was some technical difficulties on my end, so I'm publishing the rest of this after the fact now. So the week after my adventure in Puerto Maldonado was great. I was able to talk to Reinaldo, my supervisor, about how I was here to do stuff like the other volunteers, and he seemed to get it....

Hey guys. I have a lot to share with you, so heads up. I think I'll start with my adventures in Puerto Maldonado first, because it works better for where I'm headed here and beyond. The Peruvian jungle ... where to begin? This incredible, mysterious, magical place is a place I've yearned to go to for so long. The air is wonderfully hot, sticky with humidity, and thick in its consistency as well as with the sheer amount of life!...

Hey everyone. So this past week and weekend have been very rejuvenating, and not when I expected it. Things have a way of happening like that, when I need them to and not always when I want them to. In relation to that, I want to thank everyone for their support, either through comments or outside conversations we've had. So I've always wanted to celebrate Day of the Dead in a Spanish-speaking country, and last week I got to do just that!...

Hey everyone. Happy Halloween from Peru (Yes, they do celebrate it, chiefly among the children). Apparently in the more conservative Hispanic culture, Halloween is viewed as something of the devil. If I had prepared, I would be dressing up because I still enjoy doing that, but I had other more unique things to do, which I will share with you next....

So this week was important for me for a few reasons. First, it marks the halfway point. To this I have responded by planning out the rest of the weekends I have here, because I want to take in Peru and any more of South America I get to see with eyes wide open, and I am excited to take you along....

Greetings from sixteen thousand feet lower. I wish I were writing this from the beach, but it didn't exactly work out that way. So to be true to the title of this post, this week was great, and it was also difficult. The difficulties were more in work and in meeting new people. The great things? I started reading Harry Potter in Spanish, and I went to Lima....

Hey everyone. Since it's been a while since I wrote, I hope I can capture everything important that has happened. So I have had some difficulty in my internship. In the first week of October, I had resolved to be more involved, even if it meant being a nuisance, until I could figure out my niche. I'm still having limited success there, not the kind that my fellow volunteers are having, and I don't know what to do about it--I've talked to my supervisor about it directly, and he just said, "Don't worry about it....

Hey everyone. It's been a while, so I'll do my best to briefly catch you up. As the title suggests, things really do keep getting better, although of course everything has a catch to it. Antony and I got to the point where we felt good about me going places on my own. As I said before, I hope to develop a friendship with him that goes beyond an exclusively helping relationship, because he's cool....

Hi everyone. I'll be honest, my first week in Cuzco has been a vivid blur. I need to get better at keeping track of it in my journal. For now, hopefully this will suffice. I feel like what my Spanish professor and I are doing in class, both day to day and more long-term, are helping me to quickly get over the remaining language barrier....

So here I am in Cuzco, and I am loving it. I also loved getting there. The fun really started not long after I got to Los Angeles. When my turn came to check into the flight to Lima, I was told that the flight had been canceled due to maintenance issues and that those of us who were scheduled for that flight would get a hotel and meal vouchers....
