My window view of Huaycan

So far I haven't taken many pictures because I don't want to draw anymore attention to myself as an American by taking out my digital camera to take touristy pictures. But here is a photo of the view from my window in the volunteer house. We can see across our neighborhood, on to the roofs where chickens, dogs, cats, bunnies and pigeons roam. All of the houses here are made of brick and are constantly in construction. As soon as people get enough money to buy more bricks, they add on another floor or room. The neighborhood is filled with an abundance of sounds- the roaster crowing, horns beeping, church bells ringing, and children playing. Our road is not even paved, but somehow we have really fast internet!
