Well that went quickly!

Hola hola,
So, I'm going home tomorrow... really not sure where my Bolivia time has gone but I've loved every minute of it (okay that's a little lie, I didn't enjoy being ill last week, but hey, all is good now so let's not babble on about that) Been a week of many experiences, seen so many exciting trees (I know that sounds very dull, but coconut, cocoa, mango, coca etc etc trees are pretty hard to come by in Birmingham) Met some lovely lovely people, sang many many more Spanish children's songs and got to experience life (and a wholeee lot of food) in the tropical region, this was all after a nine hour journey but so so worth it for the views on the way!
The week before that went really well, was sad to leave my English class and everyone else I've got to know, as well as Cochabamba, really hope I can go back one day.
It's midnight here and I need to get up at 5am tomoz so I'll leave it here but hopefully write a little post when I'm home :)
Love xx

Busy busy busy

Oh hi! So, just a really quick little post to say that this week is a pretty busy one (hence the title) so thought I'd do a little update as may not be able to for a while! We are currently running a holiday playscheme in the centre, it's a lot of fun involving singing, games and crafts and we never really know how many children will turn up! I'm also running an English course this week (twice a day) which I hope is going well, I don't think I've ever sung 'head shoulders knees and toes' so many times in 2 days but hey! (I've also learned to stick to easy songs as otherwise it's just me giving a solo performance to a group of children!)
So yeah.. also had another trip to La Cancha, can't get enough of it, although the pet section was quite saddening (but very cute) they had loads and loads of little chicks, puppies and also kittens for 20p (I was so so tempted to buy a whole load of them so that Crunchie would have some friends).
Anywhom, my English lesson starts like now, so erm bye!
Off to the jungle next week so unless there is some form of jungle WiFi, you may not hear from me in a while
