Final Days and final hours almost in Peru


I finished my last day of school on Friday. I really enjoyed the kids and have many memories of funny things they did, like speaking to me in quechua and laughing their heads off when I did not know what they were saying.


I have been thinking of what I will miss when I will leave here, the sparkling eyes of the children, the silence of the mountains, the early morning sun and the songs of the birds in the garden and the unhurried pace of life here, I have never seen anyone rush! I am hoping to sustain the inner peace I have experienced here when I return home. I will also miss the friendship of Aida and Kinkulla, the family I have been living with for two months. They just got the internet installed and they have a webcam as well so we will be able to continue the friendship via internet and webcam.
