First few days in Peru.

June 2-7th. 

I left Columbus Nebraska the 2nd of June to head to Lindsay's to take the bus from Omaha to Chicago. I hung out at the pool quite a bit before leaving as well as hanging out with my friends.

That's it. More about my trip. The day I left Omaha the bus arrived late and we left a half hour late and so I thought we would arrive that much later (ok with me) but that was not so. We arrived 2 hours late and I missed my flight, cried and thought about canceling my trip and finally went to the airport where a man from the airline helped me get on a flight for the next day with paying the cancellation fee. I got to Lima the 5th and to my hostal that night. I stayed in the district of Barranco and loved it. The hostal was super close to the coast where I spent a lot of time alone just taking it all in and whatnot. 

I explored Barranco by myself and with a girl, Ashild, that I met in my hostal. We got our feet sucked by fishes and went to a festival during the day which I returned with that night with some fellas I met from Texas. I joined the Tejanos for dinner and we hit it off right away. They were comical and I enjoyed their company. 

On Sunday I took them to the bus station, exploring myself, and we went to the city center to explore some catacombs. These were so very interesting, so many bones!! We walked to a little park are that had some events and Travis found out he got pickpocketed, but nothing taken. We got back to our hostal and had dinner at a horrible restaurant where the food didn't have any taste. I shared the Cuy with Kyle but was saddened that it was not more intriguing. Should have went to Javiers! 

That night we went back to the hostal, played some cards and I met the friends of my friend Nathan who he said could help me out if needed. They are super nice and have hung out a few times with them and the girls in my program. Well Monday I walked with the Tejanos to the bus station after heading to the beach and wished them luck in Cusco and I hope to see them again when they get back. Texas is not far away from me at all!! Well that was about it for this time more later.
