I've been doing silly things again. Ohh Lizzy. Maybe these days are just my time to be stupid. But I'm still good and happy and looking forward to home, and today I saw Cesar! He seems the same which I'm really happy about hehe. He is sleeping now but we will meet up this arvo and I will go to Mazatlan with him for a bit, then head down to see ( Read more... )

Mmm reading that last post... not even going to bother writing about what a hypocrite I am, but nevermind. In Ecuador now, arrived from Colombia yesterday, and tomorrow I'm flying to México to see all the guys up there. Will be awesome. Just chilling today. Don't really have any news! 11 days in Mexico with Cesar, Pablo and I hope Josh and Omar, ( Read more... )

I feel bad. I sent Ale a mean email because he's been bad at being in contact and he wrote back now to say that he is really sick and in bed, and taking some kind of drugs for it which means it would have to be really bad because he hates hates hates taking medicines and going to the doctor. And he's been sick more than a week now cos when I spoke ( Read more... )

Bueno. I feel... strange ( Read more... )

Today at five there is a birthday party at Mantay for about 6 of the kids who've had birthdays in the past few weeks. I feel like Papá Noel because of the sheer weight of the bag of presents I'm taking hehe. But it's going to be fun. Yesterday my bro Timmy called me which was really lovely, though the phone card ran out and cut off after 20 minutes ( Read more... )

Today I was at Mantay from 9am until nearly 7pm, and a new baby arrived. Her name is Jovana and she's 2 months old. Her mum, Reina, is 13 and is from a campo and can't speak spanish, just quechua. So when I took Jovana to her today to be fed I said 'ñuñu,' which I remembered is quechua for teta or breast, and she nodded. Another time when she was ( Read more... )

Well... I don't hate Ale, I love him. Lots. Haha. I can be so completely irrational. Everyone, check out my fotolog - there are fotos of the babies there. www.fotolog.com/lizzytinky

Love Casa Mantay and the babies. Love Sandy, love the girls and everyone there. Everyone is sick though, at the moment. The stuff at the clinic -San Juan de Dios- that ( Read more... )

Well, in yet another one of those weird repeat coincidences that happen when you travel, I just ran into Guy, an Israeli who I first met in Sucre and saw in La Paz too. I was walking around Molini with Dina when I hear: 'ELIZabeth!' in this dramatic high pitched voice behind me. Haha, how random. I gave him my email and I hope he writes me and we ( Read more... )

I want Ale to be online so I can talk to him for once. I just want him to get here already. Or, I just want to stop wanting him to get here.

Tranquilo day with the babies today. Now its the weekend and I dont know how Ill fill it, and this bloody keyboard is one of those horrible ones with the punctuation hidden in codes that I dont know. I think ( Read more... )

I couldn't believe that after only two and half days away how happy I was to be back at work and see the babies again. The way I was yesterday I didn't think I'd be able to but when I woke up this morning it was amazing. I still have tonsils the size of eggs in my throat but now the pain has suddenly become bearable it's almost funny when I open my ( Read more... )
