As it has progressed throughout the year. It's fine and there are no communication problems, thanks be to God. I love my host family. It's also clear at this point that there will be no change in host families (the Arequipa kids have changed around 3-4 times), while us Tacneños have yet to change even once. I'm quite fine with this; my host family is great, we live conveniently close to both my Cooking classes and Portuguese classes.
How is school?
My classes are going well; my cooking class is very helpful; I joke that when I leave Peru, I'll be bringing the best with me :) Also, my Portuguese classes are going well. I can communicate in it muito melhor do que French.
Problems?
At 5:00 AM this morning there was an earthquake of magnitude around 7. No one was killed and the damage was very, very minor (just some sections of wall in a few old houses), as well as some power problems and the like. 5 people in hospital). During the month of April itself I did come down with Gastroenteritis (the second time I've been sick) but that has been my only other malady I've had.
What's up with your Rotary Club?
It's fine. I went to the Rotary conference in April with the other exchangers in Arequipa. I've attached some photos of those events.
Other:
I will be departing Peru on August 1st, and arriving August 2nd.
