After an uneventful flight out of Ottawa to Toronto, we arrived in the big TO safe and sound, yet with one of us lacking a passport. Not a good idea when you are flying abroad... Luckily someone turned it in and after a wee stressful moment, we were all on our way to Lima.
Amazingly, all of us (and our luggage!) arrived in one piece and we have now settled in to our hostel that is home until Monday. From there on out, we will be working on our community projects for the next 5 weeks.
Spanish is a bit of a challenge at the moment but it should pick up any time now (I hope!).
As it turns out, I will not be enduring a 20hr bus ride to my community but a fantastic flight into "La Selva" and then a short bus ride to our spot; with some sightseeing on the way!
That's it for now, hasta pronto!
Sounds very exciting so far. And with the Spanish - you will definitely pick it up quickly. I know every country must have little differences though...do you find that to be the case there?
