I am sitting at the hotel at someone´s computer. No idea who he is.

I just managed to make the boys here to buy gasoline for the generator only so that i would get internet connection.
Much to bear for a Finnish, modest girl.

I was following today how the nurse i was working with pulled a horrible nail out of this old woman´s toe. And when i am worried about patients, they say "it´s normal". And my spanish is crap in the mornings, better in the afternoons.  But i did manage to understand most of the dirty talk my coworkers were explaining to each others. I did ask is there much of  depressed people in Peru; they replied in one voice "No, we have sex all the time!" :D No wonder Peruvians usually ask on our first meeting, am I married.

What else? I have a dog here who loves me. I think it´s sent by my "amigo". He followed me on my first day here for so long.like a security guard. Even though I haven´t given him anything (besides the alligator bone yesterday) he always comes to say hello to me.

This morning I drank coffee first time in 2 months. We had our last day of the strike and not much to do. Girls decided to bring a cettle of cafe con leche and we drank lots with pan. So good.

Many guys I´ve been talking to here have been asking from me, am i not scared, being a single woman here? Because they would. But i am not. Not single bit. I trust my instincts with people. And I am so damn timid in the end. Always.

People are nice and i saw lots of fruits at the market today.
Shopping soon that is!

I am a bit scared of tomorrow because the strike will be over and they will have tons of patients.

note to self: RNs here get 2100 soles per month/ medicos 3200 soles.
The family of a patient need to buy every day the medications and care equipment, without they won´t get treatment. If they do not have family, oh noes.
