Hola todos!
It's been a good while since I've updated, and to my loyal readers that were actually effected by this, I apoligize. Needless to say, I've been a busy abeja lately.
So last weekend was fiestas de Cuenca, which is a three day weekend for all of Ecuador to celebrate the independence of Cuenca, which is really a three day drunken mess, mixed with a few indigenous parades.
I decided that since I had a test and two presentations on monday that it would be best not to be tempted, so my friend Claire and I went 9 hours south (close to Peru) to Villcabamba. It was so pretty, and relaxing, I LOVED IT!!!
Our last day as we were walking to the bus station, I saw a huge gringo in a GB Packers hat. (Buh, WHAT!? that was weird...) So clearly I had to talk to him; but true to the Packer way, he immediately started (not being interested in the fact that he was in Ecuador) bashing the Vikings. Of course, I threw out my share of "isn't your qb like 60 years old?" and, well let's be honest thats the only diss I could think of...chuta.
The bus ride from vill to this bigger town Loja was fine, but I got puked on about an hour into a five hour bus ride from Loja to Cuenca, so I got sick in the head and stomache and didnt end up going to class anyway on Monday. Crap. But I presented and tested on Wed and it went pretty well.
So, here's the big news...I GOT MY NOSE PIERCED, and yes Alyssa I did copy you. It's such a foreign country thing, I just couldn't pass it up.
Anyway, I'm out of town all weekend in Saraguro for a indigenous cleansing! WOOT!
See ya!
Note: my photoshop skills are horrible, i tryed to lighten up this photo of me and a llama and it looks like bum, but just pretend its cool, ok?
