"PERUsing with Traci Stewart"

Elon volleyball's Traci Stewart is spending the winter term studying abroad in Peru. Read all about her Peruvian adventures as she shares them with Phoenix fans on our blog.


So yesterday and today are kind of similiar days. We start off with Spanish class at our Maximo Nivel School, which was five minutes walking distance from our hotel. We have the same teacher that we did in Arequipa and I absolutely love her. We found out yesterday that she was only 28-years-old but having the time of her life teaching Spanish to  kids like us. She lives here in Cuzco. It is such a beautiful city. Located in the Andes, but still has the hype of a ancient Incan town. It reminds me a lot of Salamanca because it is quaint and clean with awesome people. Cuzco is Raul's town as well. We got to meet his one-year-old son yesterday and his wife. His son looks exactly like him and loves his Daddy just like we do. If you haven't noticed already, Raul is the man.

I have to go to class, so sorry this was so short. Today is our last day in Cuzco. We will be touring ancient Incan ruins today. They were great architects that's for sure. Oh by the way, Cuzco is in the Sacred Valley, so I'm finally here - the Sacred Valley. What a beautiful place.
