Hello all! So I arrived eventually after about 17 hours of planes, and so far the peruvians are lovely, and everyone in the flat is very nice, though all more in tune with the whole travelling thing than I am at the moment. I'm living in a flat with about 12 other volunteers, all between 18 and 29 bar 2 Scottish ladies in their 60s! My spanish is being tested quite a bit at the school because the ... Read Full Entry

Oh it all sounds soo exciting, It's good u've got other volunteers in the same position. Im sure things will get better with time and you'll learn how to deal with the difficult kids! I think it's great you're working with children at the poor end of the scale, it makes it more rewarding! Miss you! xoxox

Hello Cons Glad you arrived safely. Seems they are getting you to work right away. Working with these kids was always going to be frustrating, but, you knew that eh? I'm off to Turkey tomorrow - with the world's biggest bag! Love Dad

It sounds so exciting! So, can you only speak to Lorenzo in Spanish, or does he speak English? And how do you know what to teach?

Hi
Hi Connie, it's been great to read all about your first week. Sounds like you are settling in just nicely. Take advantage of the time now, no school in the afternoons, wish work was the same for me! No rest for the wicked as they say. 2 Scottish ladies at 60 years old, good on them. Well as you know I've done two big travelling stints and although I'm no-where near 60 (well not quite!) I definitely hope to be travelling when I'm 70 never mind 60! Enjoy everything, take every opportunity, stay safe and take lots of photo's - I'll get my big bruv to frame lots for you when you get home. Love you lots, frusie.xx
