Conclusion of Chapter 1..

I've done plenty of reading. This is in an effort to improve my English (hope it shows) and weed out any bad habits, before passing them onto the Peruvian kids. I've completed a number of pieces in prep for my exhibition in Nov time. I will keep you all posted. The Spanish learning has been slow, but I've learnt some useful phrases and tried them out on some Venezuelan ladies. I've learnt how to sail a 40 ft Kat, which is pretty exciting because after speaking to the skipper and charter company, I can now take one of these puppies out for a week or two with my mates. There is a huge bell ringing in my head for a surf trip in the Pacific woohoo, Dec time maybe. Please put comments if anyone is keen, shouldn't be to expensive and would be an amazing experience swanning around the Pacific Islands.The CFA studying on track - geek. I've learnt a number of star constellations which have always been a mystery to me. And finally I've learnt a whole bunch of stuff about Tommy P. All in all, the trip so far has been one life enriching experience.
