In the home stretch

So, I have only two more weeks left and you can bet I´m going to be living it up until then. Once I moved out of The Point I got a little place of my own on Calle Atatud close to Plaza de Armas. Although not perfect it does suite me well. My room is right on the courtyard but doesn´t get much sunlight. It has two twin beds, nightstands and a quaint little chair. My favorite parts are the Klimt prints on the wall and my leopard print bedspread! LOL It does have a kitchen but the water doesn´t run all day. The only times I can take a hot shower are between 7-9 in the evening...if then. I tried to jump in there tonight but a fuse kept blowing in the building and turning the water freezing cold instantly. Boo. I can´t complain though. It is a place of my own and I don´t have to worry about sharing with four other people. I do miss the people I worked with at The Point but that´s probably it. Guess I´m getting to old to live in a dorm. :)

I´ve been to Pisac twice since I moved out and to the market here in Cusco everyday. I´m also almost done gift shopping which I can tell because my wallet keeps getting smaller. I still have to go and extend my visa for Peru and have no idea if I´ll be fined for going over. Oops. I´ve been much to busy with my new boy to even worry about that too much though. After a couple one night stands it´s nice to have someone to stick around for a bit, even if it´s only for a week and a half. His name is Phil and he´s super sweet...too sweet I keep telling him. Tall, handsom, smart and sweet, what more can a girl ask for in a Peruvian fling?!

One more thing to be extra excited about...my two friends Parvi and Sidney are coming to visit this weekend!!! I cannot wait until they get here. It will be so nice to have very familiar faces around. And it won´t hurt that we´ll get the best room in my hostel for sunlight!
