Nazca Lines
One of the pictures - The Astronaut Went on a tour to the Nazca lines today. After the tour, the guide asked if we would like to visit the school where he teaches English. Since we have nothing to do in the evening while waiting for the bus to Arequipa, we decided to go check out how the schools here look like.
We were dragged to the front of the class when we arrived. We played temp English cum Geography teacher, introducing ourselves in English and showing where Singapore is on the world map. And then we were made to teach them pronounciation of numbers, making the students who are all teenages and adults, read after us. It was kinda strange, like teaching kindergarten kids. But it was really fun to answer their questions about ourselves and about Singapore. A really fun way to mingle with the locals.
Teaching seems like a pretty fun job. Hmmm... Might consider for my new career.
