Becca In Perú: September 2005

http://beccajoyperu.blogspot.com/2005_09_01_archive.html

Welcome to my blog! Friday, September 16, 2005. This past weekend I took a trip with other students to the Colca Canyon. This canyon is the 2nd deepest canyon in the world, second to another here in Peru. I came away with many stories from this weekend. I’ll start with the bus ride:. The view of this part of Peru was good though: a lot of desert, mountains, and alpacas and llamas. Here is our group that went:. 2 students from Germany, 3 from Denmark, 2 from ALABAMA! When we climbed back up to the lookout...

Both Delicious and Nutritious: January 2006

http://beachanatomy.blogspot.com/2006_01_01_archive.html

Both Delicious and Nutritious. Random observations from a medical student in Grenada and beyond. Before I get to some biochemistry (and you thought I didn't have a life), I took some pictures and uploaded them onto my pictures website. They are all views from the 'Upper True Blue' campus, which is basically walking out my dorm room and 'up' a hill (I live on 'Lower True Blue'). Shows some pretty nice weather for the next few days - I just couldn't help myself). Posted by Patrick at 16:27. I then relaxed ...

Both Delicious and Nutritious: December 2006

http://beachanatomy.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html

Both Delicious and Nutritious. Random observations from a medical student in Grenada and beyond. Part III: Gallbladder Disease. It was at this point that most people I think would tend to quit. Andy and I had tried our best to secure diagnosis and treatment for some disorder that was affecting me, and yet, our efforts were thwarted at each turn. With a heavy heart I turned toward my family and advice from home to help recover from whatever dastardly disease was attacking my insides. After reviewing what ...

Both Delicious and Nutritious: May 2006

http://beachanatomy.blogspot.com/2006_05_01_archive.html

Both Delicious and Nutritious. Random observations from a medical student in Grenada and beyond. I am writing this at approximately 36,000 feet above sea-level. Local time is now. Where is local time, you ask? Good question, it is located just outside of the city of. Well, that is a little strange, considering I live in. Which is nowhere near. It is especially strange when one considers that my travel plans did not remotely include. The closest I was to be to. In fact, I was due to land in. It seems that...

Becca In Perú: December 2005

http://beccajoyperu.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html

Welcome to my blog! Friday, December 30, 2005. My How Time Flies! It is SOOO hard to believe that 2 years ago this week, I was on my first mission trip ever, and it was here in Peru. After that trip I got swept up in a whirlwind of applying and being approved by Mission to the World, raising support, going through training, and arriving here! Here's me 2 years ago here! And here is a kind-of recent shot 2 years later.). Here is a glimpse of His Andes mountains:. Posted by Becca @ 2:46 PM. Many have asked...

Becca In Perú: August 2005

http://beccajoyperu.blogspot.com/2005_08_01_archive.html

Welcome to my blog! Saturday, August 27, 2005. One might ask: How many people can you fit into a taxi (other than the tico taxi)? The answer as I discovered the other night is 8 : 7 women, 1 male taxi driver, one cake, and 2 bags of groceries, not to mention at least 4 purses. Personal space? What is that in Peru? Next we saw them pour gas into a 1.5 liter water bottle, then pour that bottle into the tank. Gratefully, minutes later we arrived home. The taxis are another way I am learning to trust God!

Becca In Perú: February 2006

http://beccajoyperu.blogspot.com/2006_02_01_archive.html

Welcome to my blog! Thursday, February 23, 2006. I arrived to Lima this week, and am in the process of settling in. Since I have been in Arequipa for the majority of my time here in Peru, I am now needing to learn Lima, and the way of life here. Some may ask, "But you have been in Peru, why are you adapting yet again? There are grocery stores here, but I have learned that produce is a lot better from either the market place, or the people who walk the streets with their buggies full of fruit, announcing ...

Becca In Perú: November 2005

http://beccajoyperu.blogspot.com/2005_11_01_archive.html

Welcome to my blog! Monday, November 28, 2005. The Adventures at Lake Titicaca. So this past Friday, as many people were shopping and fighting to get the best bargains, my Peruvian sister Ana and I were peacefully making our way by bus to Puno, to visit Lake Titicaca and some of the islands there. For a bit of a geography lesson for those who are like me: Lake Titicaca is the largest freshwater lake in South America, and the highest navigable lake in the world at 12,500 feet above sea level.). Like I men...
