Where We Live in Huancayo

For the month of February, Jeremy and I lived with a wonderful host family here in Huancayo. We had our own room, access to kitchen and laundry facilities and cable tv! Aurora, David, and their 22-year-old son Albaro were our host family members. They are related to Mosoq Ayllu´s program coordinator and have a nice home located in the same location as Mosoq Ayllu´s volunteer residence, so it was also in a very convenient location. With the family, we ate, watched t.v., and practiced our Spanish. We really enjoyed our time with them and hope to visit them often.

When we decided to stay another month in Huancayo, we realized that we needed to save a bit more money, so we decided to find our own place while still participating in the volunteer program with Mosoq Ayllu. We found the place through Sarah´s Spanish teacher and are very happy! Not only is it cheaper, but feels like a bed & breakfast! We live with one woman (Delia) who owns the house, but who will be leaving soon to join her family in Lima. She is very nice and we still have an opportunity to practice our Spanish skills with her. For now, we´ve agreed to stay here through the end of March with the possiblity of renewing the lease afterward.
