Yo tengo no soles....

Ran out of money yesterday, $23 to my name......so Chile is no longer an option. Well theres strikes there anyway so its probably best avoided. Stupid Chile, Stupid Peru, Stupid money. It has made us more creative with our cooking, we made soup last night for 20p, you could taste the savings. Luckily parents have saved the day with a loan (thank you!) ...Our plan is to get voluntary work at the new schools they are building on the outskirts of Arequipa, 2 weeks work there should save us a lot of money. And I think we estimated that our work will save around 1,000 lives. Plus our hostel has offered us a discount if we stay for 2 weeks, something like $5 per night which is great because Arequipa is beautiful. There is a very nice German girl here staying till August working so we can practice our German and wear lederhosen. I´m still hoping to climb el Misti before we return to Lima, its just screaming to be climbed! Anyway its all worked out okay now and I´m looking forward to starting!
