November: Summertime!

November already.. This means 2 weeks of university to go, one week of exams and then TRAVELING! My god, canot believe that I managed to live her for 4 months already.

Last weeks my parents visited me and they had a great trip through Peru. It was good for them to see how I live and how awesome this country is. Especially because they did not want to let me go before. They really loved the trip and they saw a lot.

I joined them to Cusco, to see the Machu Picchu together! This was so great. It was really the highlight of Peru! The Machu Picchu is the city of the Inca's and is really impressing.

On the university it is still not totally going how it should. Some groups do not want you to participate and they finish the work and write your name on it, while others just do not want you in their group. Next week we have to hand in 4 big end assignment and this is kind of stressful. Although we did not do that much during the semester. It begins to irritate me that we have to go to classes obligated and have the little exams. For this I am glad when I am back in Tilburg again. What a good thing is that the students partcipate a lot in discussions. I really want to do this more, but the spanish is still a barrier for me. Therefore I just answer in English. It is only hard to hear what the others say so I never know if the students already gave that answer.

The weather in Lima is really better now and I see more blue air then grey air. We can walk in shorts and I am almost tempting to go to the beach, but maybe this is a little bit to much.

Everyone starts to plan his trip for december. I am not totally sure about this yet, but probably we will start in Bolivia and then go to Argentina and or Chile.
I could never imagine a year ago that I would do that. Me, a 20 year old girl. But I am gonna do it and I will enjoy it.

I will update after finishing my assignments.

Nos vemos
