Blog from Brandon and Shafeeq

In the morning, Brandon tamed a wild dog. We went for our last day to Bandolista. We painted blocks and the wall of the school. After work, we had a celebration. We had the celebration to say farewell to our host families and Peru. We had a meeting to discuss our local leaders. Most local leaders were our host moms and dads. They all show compassion, patience, and support. We also discussed the global issues of Peru and how the culture would take getting used to. The next day we went to Machu Picchu. There were a lot of stairs, but it was pretty amazing. The ancient architecture and its position in the mountains made the experience interesting and memorable.
