Day 2 realising how friendly people are here and meeting people from all over the world. Can't wait to get started. Have purchased a few books on learning Spanish and learn from TV and movies the basics of some phrases. I have some very basic skills in Italian that I learned a long time ago and can see the similarities in some of the languages and even in the English to Spanish translations. I would love to visit Peru, Chile, Argentina and Brasil. I would also like to visit Spain and Portugal at some point too. The culture of these countries intrigues me. I have been involved in breeding Alpaca also and the wool crafts is of interest to me also along with the farming practices of these countries as I live in a rural area in Australia.
