They are settling in well and looking forward to beginning our work in the mountains tomorrow with a trip to the Llama Pack Project’s pasture. You’ll hear from everyone in the group over the course of the next few weeks but below is a quick reflection from Tommy, today’s journaler, about an informal soccer game that occured when we returned to the Llama Pack House:
Today, as I was playing futbol with 6 year old Borja and Berenice, both as cute as can be, I realized even though I can hardly communicate words to them, I can communicate emotions. This struck me as Berenice scored a goal, and a smile lit up on both of our faces at once. She then ran to me, we clasped hands together, and danced in a circle shouting for joy; an American with a little Peruvian girl. Humanity has a way of bringing together the most unlikely of companions, despite cultural barriers and miles of geographic separation.
