We were just fishing for piranhas for three hours.
I don`t like the local style of keeping the fish alive untile cooking them; slow, choking death.
And those damn fishes had so hard skin I couldn`t do a scratch on them.
I has a headache. I got two piranhas. Only two! Baby ones!
This villages` kids love us.
Essi! Alice! Farhan! Pobre Sahmaian!
Naomi, one of the british girls, is requesting my drawings.
That feels quite weird to me.
The clinic was fun today. Though I was almost made to diagnose things all the time and I don`t do that.
Me`s no doctor dammit.
Yesterday we didn`t do much.
It was sunday so we just swam a bit, ate a lot.
Also, this town called "Atuncocha" was having a football match for 4 different villages
Women had their own teams and men their own.
Mixed teams from same age groups played against each others. Friendly matches.
The winner got 40 soles and pride.
It was fun to watch.
Lots of flying ants though.
The villagers were playing music so late though that we thought most of them would have been at the clinic today complaining headaches :)
Only martes and miercoles of the boat still, then the villagers have to be without until December. :(

Hubesperanza. That`s the village we`re at now.
It`s very cute.
Very calm.
Only silent children and loud birds.
I just washed lots of clothes in the river, having the washing done on the speedboat. This morning we were at a village called Huanana. I gave at least 70 patients their anti-parasite pills and measured their weights, heights, and "cinturas".
This little village even smells good.
As I was finishing the washing of my boots,
a little girl from the village cam on the boat and started to follow me around.
Her dog`s name is Princesa.
I keep on asking questions from her. Luis was sitting next to me a moment ago and he repeated my questions, to me the girl just smiled but to Luis she also responded. Normal here.
This village has some inspiring qualities.
I just drew an elephant for Naomi and started fishing catfish from the boat with our dentist.
Two of the things I have enjoyed doing when I was younger, but which were killed by the "adult life".
The village is preparing to see the Peru - Argentina match today.
I am excited tough it`s the only night we`re supposed to go to bed early.
...
Just got back from the football match.
It`s half time, time to go to sleep.
In the flood rotten school
in the middle of sweaty Peruvians
Kids watching in the front
sitting on the floor
Older in the back
Everyone staring at this little box with bad quality image, next to it this huge subwoofer to get the best volume out of the match.
Moths were intrigued by the light of the TV.
Every once in a while
a bat flied in from the ceiling and got a bit lost.
When we came back on the deck of the boat
beautiful milkyway in the sky.
