Hello Katie, you are not interupting at all. Nice to know I am not the only American having difficulty finding friends and having issues in another country.
I would imagine in Peru, most would think you are "Rich" as so many people who are not well travelled or worldly; do.
You are a lovely person for being a volunteer. But, as you know you have to be careful. We Americans are used to just whipping out a little cash to pay for things but in poorer areas like maybe where you are? you may come across as a deep pocket. Be careful.
Until I know why I am sick, I can't do much of anything but I did make myself a promise that when I am better and find out there is nothing serious, I would do some volunteer work.
Please post, I am fairly new here too and it would be nice to hear how you are going.
Pat has been wonderful.
Adios for now and please keep us all posted.
