This has been quite the eventful week, with arriving in Peru, doing lots of shopping after my first day back to get lots of stuff for my new room (finally making it feel like home!), starting school meetings, and seeing all of the visitors who are currently in Peru from PA! I got to see Aaron Henning, my pastor from ACF back at PSU, and his father-in-law (who happened to be my dentist in State College) because they came to Peru primarily to see Dave Mosemann down at the orphanage. So we had dinner the other night and they both came to my new house to see what my life is like here, and I'll be seeing them again at church tomorrow! Also, yesterday the Peter's arrived in Lima.. if you don't know, that's Lindsay, my best friend growing up and her family & boyfriend, Matt. We met in Miraflores tonight for dinner before they go to Cusco / Machu Picchu, and then Arequipa, tomorrow. They'll be back in the city next weekend for a few days before heading back to the States, so they're hoping to come see my house and school and get a little slice of my life in Lima. So it has been really fun having so many familiar faces here the past few days. It has definitely kept me from getting too much into the work mode.. which we know I can slip back into far too easily. So I can honestly say my last few days have been quite balanced and enjoyable. Well, here are some pictures of my last few days with my visitors and roommates...
