Hearts Huanchaco

So happy we moved to Huanchaco. It's quiter, smells better, no honking taxis everywhere, the beach, fresh seafood everywhere. Also, we really like our Spanish teacher. We had our 2nd lesson today and he goes fast and makes your brain work. It's not easy. My brain doesn't want to do it, but I am trying anyway.

We are so happy to have a kitchen in our new place so that we can make some american food. We just went to the market and bought fruit, eggs, bread, veggies, and cheese (which are things I learned to appreciate). We don't have to eat only peruvian food anymore! We've started to find really great Peruvian food, like Sudado de Pescado, but there still aren't enough vegetables to survive.

Also, we found a really great restaurante a block from our house. Otra Cosa. It's quite a funny situation. The owner/cook happens to be from the Netherlands. So he speaks fluent Dutch, some English, and some Spanish. When we sat down at the table he hands us our menu and says "alstublieft." The menu is written in Spanish, and we order the food in english. And when we're done we ask for "de rekening." It's weird for my brain.

Ciao.
