First weeks on Universidad del Pacifico

Today I started the third week at Universidad del Pacifico.
This is one of the best universities in Lima and I guess it has the best economic department of all the universities. The peruvian students are all children of the richest inhabitants of Lima. So it is not strange when you see an Apple laptop in one of the lecturerooms.

Like I told you before, my Spanish is really not sufficient so to understand the classes is really hard. Some lecturers are easier to understand than others and it is not that I don't get anything, but it is just hard. By the way the first week I was also really sick, so it was not the best start for me like you can imagine. The level of the lectures is not really high, but for us high enough because of the Spanish. Also we have to do a lot here! Every week there is a test our a presentation and that is why you have to read a lot and like you can imagine, it is all in Spanish..

I have to admit that I can notice that my Spanish is improving, but I have to put a little bit more effort in it. It is just that when you are on exchange you also want to meet other people and not only study. I only hope that after 6 months I can speak Spanish reasonable fluent.

Chau!
