Training

Back up on Coll again! This time for a very very intense training - SO MUCH INFORMATION!!!

This week was all about mentally preparing ourselves for our years overseas, being bombarded with information and also meeting our partners and country groups. Now, I'm not going to bore you with all the important stuff, just the fun things!

First of all this is my lovely partner Hannah, Hannah and I will be volunteering in the same orphanage together, in La Aldea Infantil San Miguel.

Hannah and PT's Dog! 

Along with Hannah I met the 6 other girls going to Peru, they will be volunteering in various orphanages across Peru; heres us looking crazy! 

¡Muy Loco!


Part of Peru's culture is the animals, including Alpacas, so we couldn't miss out on going to see Coll's Alpacas; after all its technically important training, right?

Incredibly Fluffy Alpacas!!

If feeding alpacas carrot sticks wasn't crazy enough we also went swimming in the sea.....yes the Scottish coast! Cold? DEFINITELY! Once you're pretty numb from the temperature though jumping around in the huge waves is actually pretty fun, however fighting over the 5 warm showers wasn't as fun!! 

On our final night, after staying up incredibly late at the Ceilidh we hiked up the the highest point to watch the beautiful sunrise at 5pm, I'll leave you now with some stunning pictures:
