pacca

Young Peruvians mold some adobe bricks to build thier homes.




These boys were covered in dirt from the adobe brick making.







Look at the new teachers - Profe Alex and Profe Yenni!!



Mi amiga.

Pacca is a small agrarian town in which lies an adorable little boarding school at which we teach. Every Thursday, we take a taxi to a bus stop on the edge of the city, a bus (which is basically a station wagon) to a small town about 30 minutes away, then to a motorcycle taxi for another 15 minutes. The whole trip takes about an hour, but it is well worth it.

We teach the girls (ages 7-17) English in the morning and then sports in the afternoon. The first day we were there, after teaching English the other teachers asked us to hike up a mountain with huge bags of white cement. The girls were to draw the initials of the school on the mountainside in honor of the school´s 10th anniversary. So we hike up this mountain, we find some donkeys to help us carry some of the cement...it was all so bizzare. But oh, so typical. You never know what you are going to get thrown into!
