Viva Che!

Chapter One: The next adventure for the SALI inters will be conquering the northern half of Argentina.

We Love you Annie!

Annie left Peru two days ago. It was the first of many goodbyes. Its weird to think that she is never coming back, and its weird to think that one day I will never come back. We spent her last few days in Peru together at Machu Picchu. It was amazing we hiked Waynapicchu together and experienced Machu Picchu together. I am so glad that she is my friend.

SALI Kitchen

I think this is my favorite place in SAIL. Mostly because Rosita it usually there. Its kind of old and isnt always clean but I love it. It feels like home in a very foreign place.

A Little Bit of SALI

This is the entrance to SALI





















This is the SALI office. We just got new desks. They are very nice.
















This is my desk at SALI. This is where all the magic happens.

This is my conversation partner. She doesn't look very happy but I think she likes me.

Thanksgiving Play

This was our First Thanksgiving play.

Mystery Dinner

This weeked the missionaries had a mystery dinner on the high seas. I was Amber Okely and Sara Joy was a nun.

Thanksgiving

I am sitting in class giving a test to my students right now. It’s kind of nice to be on the other end of test day. Thanksgiving is about a week away and I didn’t even realize it. It doesn’t feel much like Thanksgiving around here it feels more like spring or summer (because it's actually is spring). All of the interns will be eating at one of the missionary’s house for Thanksgiving dinner. None of the missionaries really like turkey so I don’t think that I’ll be eating any turkey this year but I am fine with that. Next week is SALI’s anniversary and since it is around Thanksgiving we are going to have a Thanksgiving party. SALI is decorated for fall with pumpkins but it looks kind of funny. My conversation partner asked me why there were squash in the sala (the sala is where the students often hang out and study). I told her because it was fall in the United States but she still didn’t really get it. I am pretty sure that there are many times when the Peruvian’s think all the gringos are crazy. To add to this sentiment all of the interns are going to be in a Thanksgiving play for SALI’s anniversary. I think the idea is to reenact the first Thanksgiving. I’ll let ya’ll know how it all goes. I’m sure there will be many pictures. Have a good weekend everyone.

New Month

Classes start today. I like that each month is a new month with no mistakes in it. I have two classes this month. One class I have had since my first month here. The other is a brand new class to me. I hope that all goes well and that relationship will begin grow. Thank you everyone for your prayers.

No Ecuador

We could not go to Ecuador because of a transportation strike. Sad be we are going to Lima for an American week
