Follow me as I join "an extraordinary group of Americans who have sought the challenges that are unique to Peace Corps service: the opportunity to live in a different culture, to learn a new language, and to forge lasting relationships with the people of Peru and fellow Volunteers" (taken from the Peace Corps Volunteer Handbook)

Donde Estas? (Where are you?)
This is not a real question in my house, it's the name of my host-mother's loyal dog. Donde Estas? (Lit: Where are you?) is a mutt, that may have some Golden Retriever in him, and is a real character. In addition to climbing ladders and following my host-mother's every command, he also sports a pretty cool pair of shades (black glasses just like mine).
As you can probably tell, Donde Estas?'s glasses are not corrective, they are for pure style. And he gets a new pair everytime my host-mom dyes her hair. She hates to waste anything, and what else are you going to do with leftover dye?
