Goodbye Switzerland

Sunday, March 3rd was the day when my new adventure was to begin. After a quick goodbye to beloved friends in the morning, I headed back home to pack the last few things! I'm telling you, only 23kg is hard to do in the first place, but even more so if a friend decides to hide in your suitcase. But I made it after all. I literally finished packing the last second before my wonderful family (incl. Dianne) had to take me to the airport in Geneva.
Again, I learned, that I'm really bad with goodbyes - I tell my folks every single time NOT to cry - but really, never works... If you have a good suggestion how to make goodbyes easier, PLEASE let me know! But anyways, it didn't help. Their parking ticket was only valid for 30 minutes and so they eventually had to leave and I went to find my airplane to Madrid.
In Madrid I had about a 3h layover, before I finally got on my plane to Lima. So Spanish it now was! WOW, crazy times! This is the language, that I'm gonna speak for the next 5 months - well lets say, I'll try at least. Even just the thought still appears terrifying to me!
The plane was packed! I sat next to some sort of celebrity, I guess - well at least he knew all the staff and he got tonz of free drinks etc. I fell asleep within the first 5 minutes. It was super nice, cuz it was a night-flight to Peru. So eventually I woke up 2 hours before arriving in Lima. I never slept that well on a airplane before! So I highly recommend night- flights to you all, they are awesome! Only 2 hours later we arrived in Lima. I expected Lima to be big - but what I saw from the airplane - it was quite overwhelming!
