a week in Arequipa

We signed up for a week of Spanish at Rocio Language Institute just a few blocks away from the hospedaje of good value and friendliness that we were staying at. Josh and I enrolled in separate private classes, as his spanish is wonderful and mine is just above horrible. The classes were good, but saying this from 3 weeks later...I forget quickly without studying properly. You wouldn't believe how hard it is to fit studying into a day down here!

When outside of class we spent the rest of our time walking around the city or doing our homework in a nice little coffee shop. We toured a lovely monastery on one day and the Cathedral in town on another. We found the city quite relaxing, easygoing, but maybe a touch to dry to cultivate a nice flower garden.
