I left home the day before I was supposed to because of all the snow and then on Friday I went to the airport super early to change my flight so that I didn´t miss my connection in Madrid. All the flights worked although they were far too long and I don´t want to see an airport again for a long time! There were four new volunteers starting with me on the same day which is nice because we all hang out together this week when we´re doing our Spanish lessons and hteo ther volunteers are at school. There seem to be a lot of volunteers here many of which I haven´t met yet.
I met my host family yesterday and there are a lot of them. I have a mother, an aunt, and uncle, a grandmother and two sisters. Plus there is also a lovely greek lady staying with my family for 3 weeks to learn spanish as well. It´s nice but I think it´ll be quite hard work because of having to speak in spanish all the time. But at least there are lots of other people who can sympathise.
The weather is really nice most of the time although today it is a little cloudy.
I´m still a little jetlagged and seem to wake up at 4.30 am on the dot every day which is a little annoying but I´m sure I´ll adjust soon.
The city is really nice and so Peruvian...cars don´t stop, wolf-whistlers are everywhere and service in restaurants is really slow!
All in all it´s been a good if overwhelming few days.
