Going to Starbucks for the first time made me feel a little more at home. It's only about 6 blocks from classes, but it's just expensive here as in the states -- I paid the same for an alto vainilla latte as I did for a two-course lunch with a beverage at a restaurant. I also went to a party centered around "The Office." (There are several Pennsylvania girls working as teachers in Lima.) We watched some of the first season and ate perogies (very tasty Polish food).
Thanks for the updates and great shots of your experience there. Splurging on Starbucks to feel a little more at home is worth it...
