A Peruvian Year: January 2014
http://gingerpinkmyexchange.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 20, 2014. Here are some pictures of Costa Verde during our walk (I'm thinking it was about 8 o'clock):. We ate at Bembos (a Peruvian fast food restaurant, similar to McDonald's but with bigger, more exotic burgers.and by that I mean that some of them have some interesting ingredients, including bananas! Waiting for our food at Bembos. My new host sister. And then we walked back down along Costa Verde to the house. I can't believe I finally look tan! Napping on towels in the sand. Oh PS: m...

A Peruvian Year: March 2014
http://gingerpinkmyexchange.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 30, 2014. A few days ago I had a rotary dinner at a chicken restaurant called Dallas. Me and Emilie (and Chachi for a few moments) took a bunch of selfies. That day, Chachi found out he is going to go to Michigan for his exchange! We're both excited that he isn't placed too far away and so maybe we'll be able to see eachother. Look Mom, I cooked! Then after we ate we were all sleepy haha. Also Eduardo got me a cool new t-shirt:. So I'm happy about that :). Oh and another quick thing! So far...

Sunday, April 13, 2014. Summer here seems to be ending- I don't wear shorts anymore. It's definitely getting cooler, especially in the mornings and evenings. By cooler I mean it now seems to be like 60s instead of 70s and 80s. Hmm what else.my birthday is in two weeks. Yay. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Monday, April 28, 2014. Hello all, it's been a while since I've updated, sorry about that, I struggle to come up with things to write about sometimes haha. Here's a few things:. Last week, both Paul McCartney and One Direction had concerts in Lima. I didn't go to either of them, I would have liked to go to the One Direction concert but I don't know, I never really got up off my butt to get tickets so yeah.haha. I did pass by their hotel though! The 25th was my birthday! I am now 17! I don't remember if I...

A Peruvian Year: May 2014
http://gingerpinkmyexchange.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 29, 2014. Sorry I haven't posted! My gosh I haven't posted in so long! I'm really sorry, but my days are getting busier and busier. As of today I have less than a month left in Peru. It's a horrifying thought. Did I not just get here? We had our final rotary trip last week, in a city called Ica. We went sandboarding on the giant dunes (I was a bit scared to do it but I'm glad I did in the end) and road buggies over the dunes which was awesome. However there were so many acts that the studen...

A Peruvian Year: Earthquake!
http://gingerpinkmyexchange.blogspot.com/2014/06/earthquake.html
Thursday, June 5, 2014. I was sitting in Spanish class at University two days ago, just being a diligent and well behaved student (lol) when all of a sudden, everything began to shake! It went on for about 5 seconds! For the first couple seconds I didn't have enough time to comprehend what was happening, then I was like "Oh my god! I wasn't scared, just had a lot of adrenaline, and for me it was more exciting than anything! And I'd be like "There was an earthquake? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

A Peruvian Year: December 2013
http://gingerpinkmyexchange.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 26, 2013. Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas! Mine was enjoyable, and a bit different from what I'm used to. Well, I went with my host brother's to pick up our turkey at around 8 something, I don't remember. At around 9:30, me, my host parents, and my host brothers went over to my host dad's mom's house (aka my host siblings' grandma) just to visit I guess, and I ate some turkey, then we returned back to our house at about 11. Me with my host dad and host brothers. So then at about...

A Peruvian Year: August 2013
http://gingerpinkmyexchange.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 26, 2013. On Sunday my host family and I took a trip to Chosica and just kind of chilled, saw a few different things, had lunch at a restaurant, and also encountered some llamas. Here's some pics:. Above is a pic of an ice cream stand that had pretty cool ice cream flavors, many made from exotic peruvian fruits. Some examples can be found on the sign in the picture: Chirimoya, Higo, I think Palta means avocado.yuck I wouldn't want that as an ice cream flavor. Saturday, August 24, 2013.

A Peruvian Year: July 2014
http://gingerpinkmyexchange.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 16, 2014. So I've been back for a bit less than 3 weeks now. It's been a while since I last posted, nearly a month ago. Let's see how much I can remember. I'll base this part off of my photos. My last week in Peru I didn't go to class. I went out with friends, enjoyed myself, spent as much time as I could with my favorite people. Let's see.the following photos are from a day's visit to Barranco, which included lunch, sightseeing, and some last minute souvenir shopping. Swinging in the park.
