Two miles up

After three flights and 16 hours either racing through, or sitting around in airports, I made it from Chicago to Cusco Peru. If i had to summarize my first impression of the city, and the country in one word, i chose different. Everything is different from the food, the people, to the cold showers, and the thin air. The people are so kind though. The people at the program that i am going through (Pro World) were so kind and helpful. they took me to lunch, and the food was fantastic! The thin air hasn't bothered me much aside from being a little short of breath when climb the stairs. When i say that the country is different, it is not at all in a bad way, and i think that it will be very good for me to experience the differences. I even think i want to focus on them because it is so interesting and awesome to me.
