... pretty hard work!

And then from Arequipa I arrived in Cusco about 3 weeks ago. I am doing volunteer work at the Q´ewar Project, an amazing social project which skills local women to make Waldorf Dolls.

I have no more time left on the computer so I am going to have to sign off now, hope this gives a flavour of what I have been up to, Peru continues to amaze, enthuse and challenge me on a daily basis. I will never forget my time here!
