Estoy bien!

I realise my last post may have made some of you panic a bit for my state of well-being, so this is just a mini-post to reassure you all that I am perfectly sane and happy and enjoying the new turn my adventure has taken. Huancayo is a lovely town with a vibrant market everyday, that sells alpaca ponchos, live rabbits, dead chickens, counterfeit DVDs and much more. Many of the locals dress in traditional peruvian skirts and hats, and yesterday was the festival of the mircale man so there was fireworks and dancing and artwork in the streets. All of which seems much more interesting and exotic than the life I was living in Lima. I have gone hiking in the surrounding hills and seen the Torre Torre as well. The spanish lessons are going really well and tomorrow Iàm heading to Cusco to hopefully see Macchu Pichu and maybe meet up with a girl I made friends with in Lima too.

my ringworm is nearly cured, my jaw has stayed firmly where it is supposed to, I've gotten over my anger at the landlady and the masturbating tramp has not given me any mental scars - more an interesting travelling anecdote with which to entertain people. So all is well

:D

  1. Hello, Josephine. Just a short note to let you know we are following your adventure from the lovely (?) state of Georgia in the States. I was going to say lovely States, but realized my heart wasn't really into it - yet. Still missing England quite a bit. Enjoy yourself and be safe. The Lawsons, formerly of Huntingdon
