Approaching 3 Months in Perú

Because I haven't done anything overly exciting in the last few weeks, this post will be short.
I think I can easily weigh it out with pros & cons, therefore:

Pros:
-I have made some really good friends lately.
- I'm about to start my 3.5 month vacation.
- I'm learning Spanish really fast - though sometimes I have mind blanks and say things in English, or the other way round.

Cons:
- I was robbed in a taxi about two weeks ago, which was probably the scariest thing that has ever happened to me. Luckily, however, I got away safe, with only a few bruises & a loss of a cheap cell phone (retail for about $30 NZD)

I decided not to write any of the other cons. The reason is that I'm enjoying too much of Perú, I'd rather make the bad things feel like little things for now. They're not what's important. :)

In the near future:
-Travel to Puno (Lake Titikaka)
- Visit from some friends in other cities.
-Christmas!!! (and I have sent off my family's gifts already!)

Until next time,

Liam in Perú. x
