Today we went to Chivay a nearby village. The students from our school had what they call an Evento. There is another Escuela Taller in Chivay. That escuela is much prettier, I kinda wish I was there. At this evento there were a lot of speeches that I didn't understand then a bar tending competition. The students studying in Turismo all prepared their own cocktail and then the school principal and other important people tasted and judged which was the best. Afterwards they presented a traditional dance of Colca I took a video of it.
Nothing is very clear, not just with the language barrier but just with telling me what my tasks are. I find it difficult. Mélanie is friends with everyone and she speaks fluently I feel really lame. I haven’t cried yet but right now I don't see how I will tough 4 months.
Tomorrow I start my first English class. I haven't prepared much because clearly I have no idea the level of the students.
I'm sad tonight but I keep reading this:
''May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit'' Romans 15:13
Tomorrow is another new day I will do better, I will speak more in Spanish.--- Bartending event, the students made their own cocktail and there were judges to vote for the best one
The students also did a traditional dance of Vale del Colca.
lache pas fille!!!!!!!!!!!!
