Today we went into the centre of downtown Arequipa by bus with our Swedish housemate Max (well a small van which fits about 14 people in and stops anywhere along the way). It was falling apart at the seams and you constantly bang your head on the side and when getting out of the bus). The cost of the journey was only 70 centimos (which is probably about 20 pence for a 15 minute ride). In the centre we found a good Spanish school where we enrolled and looked around the centre which is bonito! There is a gorgeous plaza where the locals site and enjoy the sun surrounded by catherdrals and old buildings. After looking some of the Peruvian arts and crafts we headed back home for lunch and now we will go to the volunteer centre to get our schedule! ......After lunch we went to Arequipa centre with the girls Ligiao and Lissie whom we live with and got some info about our volunteer course which we start on Thursday. After returning back to the house in the evening we had another lovely peruvian meal and later on spent a good few hours learning peruvian salsa, columbian dancing etc from the family. Had such a great time and it was so funny. It was after midnite by the time we hung up our dancing shoes!
