So I had typed up something really short to paste here, but I put pictures in and used copy to move them around, and in the process lost what I had written and copied. whoops. next time maybe. For now, just some photos of our adventure with agriculture and the combi today and some photos of my town.
Gardening at Universidad La Agraria on the outskirts of Lima:
We learned how to turn soil, add compost, and plant. Cow or horse poop are the best natural fertilizers, fyi.
Planting lettuce seeds to grow seedlings which will later be planted in the field.
Combi ride home
It was an up close and personal moment we shared with about 50 other passengers
Part of the hill right before my house (view from my roof) it really doesn't do justice to the incline... the yellow thing is a mototaxi. Half dirtbike, half rikshaw.
View of Yanacoto (my town) from my roof. Black thing is our water tank. Water comes 1 hr Monday, and 1 hr Friday. It's supposed to fill and then we have water all week. It hasn't been filling all the way so aroung Thursday we've been running out of water.
Looking down on the lower part of Yanacoto (my house is way down) from Emily's balcony.
This dirt street leads to the back of my house.
Catholic church in Yanacoto, as seen from Emily's balcony.
