see y'all in a month

[rocknroll_girl]

I'm off to Peru! Going with a great group from school on a month-long hike/community service adventure in South America...we've been planning and raising money for two years. I'm sooo excited.

plus we are the queerest team :P the group leader is my wonderful teacher Thom, who's really influenced our school with his openness, introducing everyone to his partner, starting a GSA, etc. Both of the two guys going are gay, including my best friend (2 guys, 9 girls)...and I'm the only open lesbian, but trust me, I'm not the only one there...more testosterone between the nine of us than in a biker festival, and I soften things up

will tell all about it upon return in early August!

peace out,
Eliza

A few days ago I returned from my month-long expedition in southern Peru. It was by far the most amazing experience of my 17 years of living. I couldn't even go on a computer or anything for a while because it seemed so strange after being in small, rural mountain villages for what seemed like a long period of time.

Among all the obvious cultural adjustments and encounters, one of the most interesting aspects of my traveling was that half our 13-person team was gay. There were no straight guys on the trip...very different dynamics/statistics than in everyday life at work or school. Quite an environment to grow and learn in.

Life goes on, however! How the heck are all of you?

[Patch]

yay! you're back!...i guess your trip was pretty good...i hear peru is incredible...did you see a ton of llamas?

[rocknroll_girl]

Yes, there were tons of llamas, especially in the mountain villages. A few llamas actually carried our packs for a part of our major hiking trek. Nice guys.
