Lima

We arrived in Lima around 6.30 am. It was the most beautiful sunrise!!
So first order, after getting of the airplane was to go thru immigration. My organization told me, that I won't have to worry about a visa, cuz tourist visas are valid for 6 months in Peru. Well, so I  confidentiality went up to the guy  and told him in Spanish, that I was planning to stay 5 months, to learn Spanish and work in an orphanage. He gave me a concerned look and then spoke back in Spanish - but SUPER fast. So I just said: Lo siento, no hablo espanol. So he tried to speak English, but he didn't really know English after all. So I again told him that I wanted to stay 4.5-5 months. He then said something, like 'oh no, not so long'. I apparently looked really scared and confused, so he just made a stamp in my passport and said 'oh, just go on'. That was the end of the story! Well I guess, things work differently here. My aunt only told me later, that tourist visas are also valid 3 months here.
Next step was going thru customs. The way they do customs here is, that you have to press a button and îf the light turns red you have to go to another line to have your luggage go thru the X-ray thing. Well, the lady looked at my passport and told me to go to this very line even before I pressed the button. So I guess, the Swiss are quite dangerous after all.
At 12am I was supposed to take my connecting flight to Arequipa. Unfortunately my flight got delayed like 3 times. Welcome to Peru the second! But at 2pm we finally took off. I met a really nice Peruvian lady on the plane. She lived in Canda for the past 30 years or so. So she couldn't really speak Spanish anymore.
At 3pm I finally arrived in Arequipa. My auntie was already waiting for me. Thomas the taxi driver from the corner stationed just around my auntie's house, was already waiting to take us home. So Thomas drives one of these cabs that seem to fall apart, if you only stare at it for too long. Anyways, he put my suitcases on the front seat. But then he realized, that he couldn't use his stick shift properly anymore. So he got out and just pushed the car backwards, jumped back in and then started driving. Welcome to Peru the third!

Finally arrived at home, we went for a walk with cute little Osito.
