Well, I officially survived my first full week in Peru. Now that we’ve started with classes I feel like I’m settling into a bit more of a routine which is nice and helps the time pass a bit more quickly. Now that I’ve been in Peru for a week I also feel a bit more at home getting around. To get to the seminary where we have classes every morning I meet up with my “travel group” (Sam, Greta and Hannah) and flag down a taxi. However I’ve even managed to get the hang of things enough to usually feel comfortable getting around by combi (the local variety mini-bus).

Other things are also going quite well for me. My family is wonderful and makes me feel SO at home. I even got to go with my younger brother Samuel and his youth group to a park in the mountains where we enjoyed football, games and swimming. Yeah, so things are going pretty well. I pray everything is going well for you as well. I’ll post more updates later!

PS. One correction I do need to make. The photo of the Peruvian flag I posted earlier I have discovered is NOT actually what the flag looks like. Yeah, it definitely has a crest in the middle.
