January is flying-don't you agree?
We have been busy getting back into the swing of things and we are feeling very settled into life in Ollantaytambo.
Here are a few pictures from the past few weeks that we think you will enjoy.
Have a wonderful day!

| Lucy and Brooke reviewing male anatomy in the capacitación (training) this past Friday. Apparently, there was a mudslide and we had to leave early because it was raining. Luckily, there will be no trainings in February due to this rainy season because the roads will not be easily accessible. |

| And the STI poster comes out again at Friday's training. "Is HIV dangerous?" one man asked. Needless to say, there were a lot of questions and shocked faces. |

| The coolest hand chair ever at Full Moon Lodge in Ollantaytambo |
