15 Days

I can't believe how fast this summer is rolling by, in just about 2 weeks, I will be on a plane on my way to Peru. The culmination of all the work I've been doing this summer will lead to this, and now that it is so close I am ready to just hop on the plane and experience the Amazon. Even though I've been out of the country before, the only country that wasn't part of the third world that I visited was Northern Cyprus, however I was only there for a week with my family when i was 9 , they sheltered me from the sad state the country was and still currently is in. This time, I will experience everything first hand, without any censoring of what is going on in Peru. While Peru is mostly quite safe, regions of Lima are actually quite dangerous and have areas of rampant criminal activity. As long as I get back in one piece, I'm ready to experience it all.
