My nursery kids, riding the micros/combies, surfing in huanchaco, liz (but will see her new years!!), the other SKIP volunteers, cebiche, 4.50 sole menús (like $1.50 for a drink and 2 large course), potatoes gallore (the best french fries, fresh not frozen), carts on street (to buy watermelon, papa relleno, meals, marcianos, acuñas, etc), dance class @ the gym, speaking spanish all the time, Grupo 5 and cumbia (hehe it grew on me), tortillas (egg kind), farmacias (don't have to go to the doctor for every little thing), chinita (grew to like this nickname that folks gave me here :)), traveling, exploring all that is Peru...
What I won't miss:
having a bad infestation of lice, talking on skype w/ brentt (and not having him in person), tons and tons of random bug bites all the time, whistling and cat calling (and taxis honking and waiting for you even though you DIDNT wave for them), unavoidable tanner/freckled skin (so much sun despite being caked on with sunblock all the time), coming home from work with dirty feet (though the flip side is going to work every day in flip flops was very cool!), so many meat options, 'the runs' every other day (tho i think it kept the weight down! heh)...
